Field Trip Meals Request Procedures

Student Nutrition Services is happy to be able to provide meals for students and adults who are eating away from campus.

The following procedures are intended to ensure that we provide a timely, safe and quality meal to all students/faculty for each event. All students are eligible for one free breakfast and one free lunch each school day.

We also ask that you let us know if you will have over twenty students off campus for lunch without needing sack lunches for them. This will help us reduce waste.

• Survey the number of students/staff who will want a sack lunch for the trip. At this stage we do not need confirmation, just interest.
• Complete the request form and send it to the Kitchen Manager at least two weeks in advance of the event. (Or email the form/information from the form.)
• The facilitator should update the Kitchen Manager with any changes to the meals requested, including number of students, three school days in advance of the event.
• The Kitchen Manager and staff will prepare fresh meals for the event.
• Meals can be picked up:
  • In bulk, by an adult, at the kitchen the morning of the event. You will need to take a roster of students with you to check off as each receives their meal at lunchtime. The completed roster and all leftover meals are due back to the kitchen staff the next school day.
  • By the students individually. No further paperwork is required.
• The kitchen can provide insulated carriers for meals picked up in bulk or individually.
• Any monies owed for adult/chaperone meals should be paid in advance via SchoolCafe. One meal per meal period is free for all students.

In the event of a cancellation, please inform the Kitchen Manager no later than 48 hours prior to the date of the event.

If you have questions or special requests, please call the Nutrition Services Office at 415-945-1035.
