Cathedral High School Wellness Policy
Cathedral High School believes that proper nutrition is a key support to learning. The school provides a breakfast and full-service lunch on full school days. Lunch may not be served on certain other school days such as early release days or field trips.
Free breakfast is available to students from 7:00 a.m. until 7:30 a.m. Students must leave the cafeteria by 7:30 a.m. No food or drink is allowed outside the cafeteria.
Daily lunch consists of a balanced meal with a protein, grain, vegetable, fruit, fruit juice, dairy, and water. In addition, a full salad bar is available daily. Students who choose to bring a lunch also have access to a microwave to reheat food.
Free and Reduced-Price School Lunch
Students who attend Cathedral High School may be eligible for free or reduced-price school lunch under the National School Lunch Program. Eligibility is based upon an application to the program. Parents or guardians can complete one application for all students in the household. An application is good for one school year. Households must send Cathedral a new application each year, unless the school has informed them that their child is already eligible. Households may also apply at any time during the school year if the situation changes. For example, a child with a parent or guardian who becomes unemployed may potentially become eligible for free or reduced price school lunch. Once the application process is complete, students are issued a photo ID card for lunch purposes only.
