We're excited to announce that all students will have access to free lunches this whole school year. Free meals are now available to all children at Saint Rose. The USDA has announced it will waive all fees for school meals for the rest of the school year. This is an extension of the summer meals program that provided more than 185,000 meals to families throughout distance learning and into the summer.
Students attending our Faithful Beginning Prekindergarten School Day or All Day programs will eat lunch in the classroom from 11:00 AM–11:30 AM. Students have the option of receiving lunch or milk or bringing a bag lunch and beverage from home.
This program offers menus that feature whole grains, lean proteins, low fat dairy, fruits, and vegetables to support healthy, balanced meals. Menu items will also include local and/or organic fruits, vegetables, meats, and grains when possible. The new menus will feature an all-local menu day each month called Minnesota Thursday and Harvest of the Month offerings September through March as they continuously expand their Farm2School efforts. All foods and beverages served in schools meet or exceed state and federal requirements and the Healthy Free Kids Act of 2010. Find out more information on their website.
