- March 3–7: 12:25–12:45 PM
- March 10–28: 1:20–1:40 PM
Additionally, families may request that their child spend lunch in the library as an alternative to the cafeteria. Parent/guardian permission is required, and teachers will be informed of participating students.

Student Fasting Meal Kits for February 28 - March 28
Thanks to a new program from the Virginia Department of Education, students who are fasting during the school day between February 28 and March 28 can now take school meal kits home at the end of the day. Families will need to fill out a weekly Fasting Meals Request Form for their child or children to receive school meal kits. A separate form must be filled out for each week and each student. To receive meal kits for Friday, February 28, and the week of March 3, please submit the first request form by Monday, February 24. Visit the FNS webpage for more information, including weekly request forms and deadlines.
