Food Services, Pantry and Backpack Program Survey

As you know, Kreiva Academy is unable at this time to provide regular cafeteria-style food services for our students. However, we know how important having access to healthy, nutritious meals throughout the day is to students and their families and requiring students to bring their own lunches can be a hardship.

We are currently building a food pantry in the school which will be stocked with breakfast, lunch and snack foods as well as water and juice. We are also looking into the possibility of starting a weekend backpack program in the fall which would allow students to take home enough food for weekend meals (2 breakfasts, 2 lunches, 3 dinners and snacks). Lastly, we are researching other options to bring in an outside food service vendor for hot meals or additional breakfast and/or lunch offerings.

Please complete this survey so we can gauge interest in these types of food programs at Kreiva Academy.
