Lunch at St. Joe’s

Note: Beginning Fall of 2020, lunch will be in classrooms and not Dillon Hall until we are able to change back to lunch together.

Hot lunches will be delivered to students in the classroom.

Sack Lunch - Available when you or someone who love’s you makes it.

  • Send your child with paper plates, utensils and condiments if needed. These are not available through the café.

  • Microwaves are NOT available for warming food.

Cold or “Sack” lunch is an option many students enjoy at St. Joe’s. Parents send all kinds of sandwiches, leftovers and interesting lunch items for their children. Sometimes Mr. Kelly offers to trade students for their lunches but they never seem to want his lunch…. “What’s wrong with cold Spam anyway?”

Students who have a sack lunch are able to purchase milk if they’d like.

An entrée is offered along with two sides.

  • Students will notify their teacher each morning if they will have hot lunch that day.

  • A monthly hot lunch menu will be available for viewing on the SJS calendar webpage.

  • Lunch volunteers are always needed. This counts towards regular family volunteer hours!
