Our Thanksgiving Lunch will be here before we know it! Due to this being such a popular event, we have determined the need to split Thanksgiving lunch into two different days. See the link below for specifics. We ask that you please purchase tickets ahead of time, if you want to come and eat lunch with your child! We will not be accepting cash! Scenario 1: You have a Kindergarten student and a 2nd grade student - you would need to buy one meal ticket for yourself for November 15th. You can sit with both of your students at their given lunch time but you can only eat once. Scenario 2: You have a 3rd grader and a 5th grader. You will need to buy a ticket for November 15th and November 17th since their Thanksgiving lunches fall on different days. https://bit.ly/sssthanksgiving
