What’s For Lunch? Help Make Lunch Choices Easier
In addition to the publicized menu, our team has been creating daily menu videos for teachers and students learning in-person to watch in the morning. This has assisted with the transition of lunch in the classroom for both students and teachers. As the culinary adage says, “You eat with your eyes first”, visual meal options are presented in the video and students become involved in their lunch selection for the day.
Curious what these videos look like? Want to help your child make their lunch choice the night before or morning of in-person learning?
