Christ the King School offers the option of eating lunch at school or at home. The fee for the 2011-2012 school year is $13.00 per child times the number of days per week he/she will be having lunch at school. (Example: 1 child staying for lunch 5 days per week is $65.00 for the year, 1 child staying for lunch 4 days per week is $52.00 for the year.) The Lunch Program is being coordinated by Mrs. Kelly Sullivan.

Our school is entering the tenth year of our hot lunch program. It is sponsored by FSP, the Archdiocesan Food Service. Representatives will be available to register families interested in participating in the program. Orders for the August/September lunches will be taken and paid for at this time for new families only.

Families are asked to choose between paying a $250 fund-raising fee and purchasing, throughout the year for their own use, gift certificates to popular stores. If the family chooses to purchase certificates, they will need to accrue $250 from the difference between the retail value of the certificate (what the family buys the certificate for) and the cost paid for the certificate by the School Advisory Board (what CKSB pays vendor for the certificate). Fund-raising is part of your tuition obligation. The CK School Advisory Board oversees the Manna program. Peggy James and Erin Ross administer the program.
