District-Wide Information Regarding Breakfast/Lunch for K-12 Columbiana Students
March 18, 2020
Starting Monday, March 23rd, using our regular bus routes, Columbiana Schools will deliver breakfast and lunch for all students K-12 at no cost. In order to collect information regarding delivery, we have created a survey that will need to be completed weekly. We are asking all families to complete the survey, each week, by Thursday at noon of the previous week. For the days indicated, we will deliver a lunch and breakfast to your child’s bus stop.
Walkers and open enrollment students will still need to complete the survey, but will pick up lunches at their building. All other students will have delivery to (or near) your stop.
Buses will leave the school each day at approximately 11:00 am. We anticipate runs lasting approximately an hour or so. Please have someone out for pickup as staff will hand lunches out from the bus.
Those who have already responded to the survey do not need to do so again for the week of March 23rd. If you are interested in signing up it is not too late. We are asking you to complete the survey on a weekly basis by noon each Thursday for the following week. The survey can be found at: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/coexcafe
If you do not have access to the Internet or have issues accessing the survey, please call the appropriate school office with the extension of your building principal.

Thanks so much & Go Clips!
