Program Information:
A reasonably priced school lunch program is available at all 4 schools. Breakfast is also offered daily. Each meal is nutritious and well-balanced, and menus are determined based on student preferences and affordability. Several choices are available each day at every school. A monthly menu is distributed to students and can be found on the individual school’s Web site (click on "Schools" on the menu bar above).
Students in all Coventry schools have pin numbers which access their lunch accounts in the food service computer cash registers. Parents are encouraged to put money on these accounts so students do not have to remember cash daily. One Free Lunch coupon (CGS & CHS) or 5 Free snack coupons (GHR & CNHS) are given for every $50.00 pre-payment.
Free and reduced-price meals are available to students whose families are unable to pay full price. Application forms for these benefits are available at the individual schools or by calling the food service office (742-4535).
