| CBA partners with a local company, “Food For Thought,” to provide a completely optional lunch program for the students of grades 1st – 7th. Everything is completely customizable for your child and family on the website from the company providing the lunches.
- Parents, it is very important for each student to have their class updated to reflect the current school year. Otherwise, there is no way to get the lunches to the students.
- Ordered lunches arrive at lunch time. Any snack included from “Food For Thought” will not be available until lunch. If you want your child to have a snack option prior to lunch, please send one from home.
