What is the cost for buying lunch?

Students may either bring or purchase lunch.  A menu will be sent home

weekly tokens on Friday mornings in the cafeteria or bring money daily.  
Families entitled to reduced price or free lunches must make arrangements 
directly with the school nurse. If students forget their lunch or money, 
they may obtain an I.O.U. from the Security Guard. A student may borrow only 
once and must repay the loan before he/she can borrow again.
