Hot Lunch Program

Some exciting changes are taking place to our Hot Lunch program for our 367 kids who are eligible to order. In order to reduce the workload for our parent volunteers, and to ensure the kids are receiving their ordered food more accurately, our Hot Lunch program is going completely on-line!

There are many advantages to this new system:

· It’s quick, secure, paperless, user-friendly, and you have complete control over your account

· You can view your lunch orders at anytime (online, save or print)

· You will receive weekly e-mail reminders telling you what you’ve ordered for your child’s lunch that week.

· The Hot lunch website is open now and will accept orders up until Midnight on Monday, Nov. 28^th. There is, however, no ability to accept late orders!

The instructions are quick and easy to follow:

· Go to www.ecolecorinthiaparkschool.hotlunches.net

· Click on the tab at the top of the page: Register
