How Does My Child Get Breakfast / Lunch?

Breakfast is served daily with no pre ordering needed.  Please stop by the cafeteria for Grab -n- GO breakfast. 

Lunch MUST be pre ordered each day in the homeroom.  Students order lunches by informing their HR teacher, when asked during attendance, if they will need school lunch for the day. Lunch will be delivered to the designated areas assigned per grade level and after the student retrieves lunch, will proceed back to their classroom.   

For the first week of school, lunch will be on hand while students adjust to the morning pre ordering procedure. Also, menus are available on the website and weekly newsletter.

Please email nutrition@theglobeacademy.net with any questions or concerns. We look forward to serving the students this year!

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) is a federally assisted meal program operating in public and nonprofit private schools and residential child care institutions. It provides nutritionally balanced, low-cost or free lunches to children each school day. Read more about the NSLP. 

The School Nutrition program has partnered with Simply Elegant to provide lunch for the remainder of the school year. All students are eligible to receive a free school lunch. Lunch will be delivered directly to the classroom and eaten in the classroom. To ensure the safety of the students, the vendor will follow CDC guidelines by delivering no-contact grab-and-go meals during their assigned lunch period. All meals will be prepackaged prior to arriving at school. If a student forgets their lunch at home, they will receive a school lunch for the day.
