The food service staff at Snoqualmie Valley School District provides your child with the fuel to power the learning engine. We encourage every child to participate in the school breakfast and lunch programs, which provide well-balanced, well-prepared, convenient meals, as well as a la carte snacks. Although the district keeps meal prices as low as possible, families who need assistance may be able to obtain partial or complete meal subsidies by applying to the federal program which oversees these services. An application to apply is included for every family in the school information packet. You must fill out a new application every school year in order to be eligible; last year’s eligibility is only valid the first 30 operating days of the school year.
Parents may pre-pay for meals so that students do not need to carry money to school each day. All schools use an electronic point-of-sale system that keeps a running balance; this can be used for breakfast, lunch and a la carte purchases. Students will use their school ID card or a meal card to access their account. Be sure to put your child’s name in the “note” section at the bottom of the check; student number is also very helpful. Funds can be sent in any amount desired; they do not need to be evenly divisible by any meal price. If you want funds used for only a particular meal &/or do not want them used for a la carte purchases, simply indicate this on the check. We will let your child know when funds are running low.
The Community Involvement Committee for Food Service helps set guidelines for growth and change in the program. We welcome participation by any family member. We want to know what we do now that you value and what expectations you would like us to meet. Please call 425-831-8009 for more information.
If you’d like to watch your child enjoy that school meal, please apply to work as a substitute in our kitchens. We offer part-time work that allows you to be home with your child at the beginning and end of the school day. Most substitute shifts are short, but packed with activity. They offer instant gratification – you’ll see lots of happy smiles on the kids you’re feeding.
