St. Mary’s Springs Academy is excited to announce our students (on the Ledge and Virtual) will take part in the USDA’s extension of the Summer Lunch Program.  This Federally Funded Program provides each student a Full Lunch at no charge!  The program will go into effect tomorrow, Friday, September 18, 2020 on the Ledge, and will expire Thursday, December 31, 2020 or until federal funds are no longer available.  If your child(ren) has taken a hot lunch since August 26, 2020, your school account will be credited the total amount spent for a Full Lunch.

This Federally Funded Program is an “all in” support, meaning every single student will be granted a Full Lunch at no charge.  If you prayerfully choose to still “pay” for a lunch, donations are welcome in lieu of a Full Meal charge.  Contact Kristin Zitlow at kzitlow@smsacademy.org or 920-322-8006.

Please Note:

• The free lunch covers a Full Lunch.  Any food purchased beyond the Full Lunch will be charged as normal. ie: student adds another slice of pizza to their Full Lunch, student will be charged for extra slice of pizza at the normal rate.
  • Highschool (9-12): one main entreé, milk and up to four sides (fruit and/or vegetables)
  • Elementary (K-8) one main entreé, milk and up to three sides (fruit and/or vegetables) 
• The free lunch is available to all students in grades K – 12th whether they are learning on the Ledge in person or virtual (see below for information on virtual lunch pick up).
• Students will still go through the Point of Sale as normal when getting their hot lunch.
