How to purchase a Thanksgiving meal:

• STUDENTS: $2.50 - purchase in the student lunch line on feast day using your lunch account funds
• PARENTS / GUESTS: $5.00 - pre-purchase online **(preferred for quicker service) OR purchase with cash in the student lunch line on feast day (due to limited cash at the campus, any change due will be credited to your student's lunch account). We are not equipped to accept credit card purchases on feast day.

**Please be sure to select BBE from the dropdown menu when purchasing online, as multiple schools are hosting their Thanksgiving feast on the same day, and tickets are non-transferable and non-refundable.

ALL VISITORS MUST CHECK-IN to the front office upon arrival. Please RSVP to have your visitor badge preprinted to bypass the check-in line!

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED! Please volunteer for a 1-hour shift and receive a FREE Thanksgiving Feast meal ticket! (The volunteer sign-up on bbepta.com will be up soon - please check back often)

Please see the order form below for the November 30 makeup date for retakes and absentees.

It's that time of year!
