We have been notified by the town of Manchester that the state’s extension of the Free Hot Lunch Program WILL apply to Saint James School for the remainder of this school year. We do anticipate that there will be a charge for hot lunch purchases NEXT YEAR so if you have already put money in your child’s account (since we were originally notified the free lunch program was ending) please allow that to carry forward to next year.
For any families whose child is graduating or not returning to SJS, if you have already put money in their hot lunch account, please reach out to Mrs. Guenther in June regarding the refunding of that money from the town.
