Lunch
2025-26 Lunch Program
Stargate will not participate in the Healthy School Meals For All Program for 2025-26. As you know, this State program is phasing out in December 2025.
Stargate has contracted with My Kids Lunch again this year as the hot lunch provider. Parents/Guardians will need to open an account with My Kids Lunch. They will then order and pay for lunches through the site. This process will be available mid-July.
For families that qualify for Free and Reduced benefits, please stay tuned for more information on this process.
● A monthly menu will be provided so you can order the meal(s) for your student(s) ahead of time. You will then pay for each meal ordered at that time.
● Lunch entree with a veggie and fruit will be $5.50
● A vegetarian and gluten free option will be available.
● Additional food items such as milk will be available for an additional cost (must be included in the order).
● All orders are due 72 hours in advance of the needed meal.
● Emergency sack lunch option will be available but MUST be ordered by 4:00pm the day before the meal is needed. (i.e. for Tuesday lunch, the emergency sack lunch must be ordered by 4:00pm Monday). Please note, there are NOT emergency meals available the same day if your student does not bring their lunch. The emergency sack lunch includes:
- turkey and cheese sandwich, chips, veggie and a fruit
- option for cheese-only sandwich
- gluten free bread option
● All meals must be paid for before any delivery to the school.
Providing Lunches from Home
These are a few tips to help your student have a smooth lunch experience while enjoying food brought from home.
- Please be sure your child is able to open any packages or containers in their lunch.
- Please be aware of students with allergies.
In-Class Snacks: We have a number of students who have potentially life threatening food allergies. These students can have life threatening reactions even with a very little exposure to the allergen. In an effort to keep all of our students safe, please DO NOT send your child to school with snacks containing nuts for in-class snack time.
