Food at TES

At The Expedition School, students can either bring their lunch, or can have a meal from a local restaurant delivered each day. Students enjoy a relaxed lunchtime in their classroom or elsewhere around campus. A snack period is also offered at the discretion of the teacher. Students bring their own snacks from home.

Packed Lunches and Snacks

The Expedition School is committed to supporting healthy eating and lifestyles. Thus, it is school policy that student lunches and snacks consist of nutritious food that are protein-rich and nutrient-dense in order to fuel our Explorer’s minds and bodies throughout the day. “Junk food” (i.e., soda, juice, sweets/candy, etc.) should not be included in items sent to school.

If a student leaves their lunch at home, the parent may drop it with Reception, who will deliver the lunch to the classroom. Otherwise, a school lunch will be provided for the day (there will be a $3.00 charge.)
