Quick Answers to Common Questions:

Bagels: Bagels are offered twice a month as part of breakfast only, not lunch. 

Vegetarian meals: Revolution Foods offers vegetarian options but does not currently provide vegan meals.

Food allergies: If your child has food allergies, please consult the "Allergen & Nutrition Report" posted at the menu link (scroll past the menus to find the reports). Revolution Foods does not have a 100% allergen-free kitchen. If your child has severe food allergies, please consult your physician.

Meal service: Each day, two hot and two cold lunch entrée options will typically be available (occasionally three hot and one cold).

Meal ordering/"Grab and Go":  There is no pre-ordering. Students should simply join the meal line if they would like to take a meal. Families, including those of students with food allergies or dietary restrictions, should use the menu to plan ahead for days when they may prefer to send their student to school with a meal from home based on the menu offerings. Students will enter the first three letters of their last name when checking out a lunch. Younger students will have assistance as needed. Choices will be available on a first-come, first-served basis. Please note that we always have a compliant meal of cereal, fruit, and milk available. 

Volunteering: MPCSD's lunch program relies on the support of volunteers to help serve meals each day, and we greatly appreciate the contributions of our families and community members who help make this program possible. This is a fun way to see your student during the day while providing an important service to our schools. If you are interested in volunteering, please review the District's volunteer requirements and learn more at the Volunteering and Coaching in MPCSD page or watch out for opportunities through ParentSquare.
