Lunch-On-The-Go
The Full Story
Lunch-On-The-Go provides students with opportunities to purchase monthly lunches at a fixed price from local vendors.
In the past, we set the cost at a uniform rate (~$10) to account for fluctuating vendor costs and allow for a profit to go to school as a fundraiser.
However, we now have varying prices to make purchasing more accessible, while still operating at a profit to assist the school.
