Page | 11 LUNCH MONEY All students are eligible to receive free lunch this year. If a la carte items become an option, you can use My Payments Plus service, found at www.mypaymentsplus.com to add money and monitor your student’s lunch account. LUNCH NUMBERS Every student will receive an identification number to be used when purchasing lunch or breakfast. Please make sure that these numbers are practiced and memorized by children. This will really help with the speed and flow of students moving through the lines. LUNCH PROCEDURES CAFETERIA EXPECTATIONS  Good table manners are to be displayed at all times.  Conversations will be conducted quietly.  Students are to sit in assigned areas and move through the serving line in an orderly manner.  Students are responsible for the cleanliness of their areas and should place all trash in the receptacles provided.  Students should raise their hands and ask permission to get up from their seat.  Sodas and glass containers are not permitted. TRANSPORTATION CHANGES If you require a change in transportation for your child, please send a note to the school notifying your child’s teacher. *In order to ensure your child’s safety, phone calls will not be accepted as a means to change transportation for your child. VISITORS TO SCHOOL When entering schools in Wicomico County, guests must first stop and check in at the school office. When requesting to visit a child’s classroom, notification and permission is required to ensure the class can accommodate a visitor at that time as some activities such as testing do not allow visitors. All visitors must enter through the school office to gain entrance into the school building. All visitors must have a driver’s license or state issued identification. Doors and/or gates around the building will not be opened to allow anyone entrance; you will be directed to the front of the building to enter. This is most important for the protection and safety of all students. This reminder is posted on each entrance door of our school. Remember that the education and safety of children are our first concerns. Admitted visitors will receive a pass after signing in at the office. We ask that you wear your Visitor Pass in a visible location throughout the duration of your visit to the school. In order to keep potential interruptions to instruction at a minimum, we will not allow small children in the classroom setting.
