School Lunch Program

An excellent hot-lunch program is available to all students at Auburndale Elementary School. For those students who prefer to bring a sack lunch from home, we do have milk available.  The cost is 25¢ per carton. 

We feel that the entire school day is a time of learning, including the lunch period. We encourage our students to eat healthy and nutritious foods. Also, State law prohibits the purchase of soda pop during the school day. Therefore, we are asking parents to only send nutritious foods and drinks with their child's cold lunch. (For example, boxed juices would be appropriate.) Do not send soda pop for lunch.  Milk is available for purchase as described above.

We use a computerized record keeping system. This system credits the individual students account, so one check will be split according to your directions for each child’s lunch or milk in grades PK-6. When your account gets low, your child will be given a note. Parents may send a check or cash with their child to the elementary office.  Lunch/milk checks may also be sent anytime to : Auburndale Elementary School Lunch Program, P. O. Box 138, Auburndale, WI 54412.

Remember, you can log onto PowerSchool at any time and keep track of your child’s lunch/milk balance. You will receive a letter at the beginning of the school year with your child’s user name and password.
