This is their form of payment this year, touchless sales. They<br \/>\nwill not be able to purchase ala carte without their card.<\/p>\n<p>Our district is currently operating the Seamless Summer Option (SSO)<br \/>\ncontract, and since students are not charged for meals under this program,<br \/>\nadult meals, and ala carte are calculated using a non-pricing formula.The<br \/>\nformula includes the amount of reimbursement the district receives from the<br \/>\nstate and federal government for a student meal.Under our current contract<br \/>\n,that reimbursement is higher than in the past, which means the price of an<br \/>\nadult meal must be higher.<\/p>\n<p>The Food Service department appreciates the support it receives from adults<br \/>\nparticipating in the program. The district is required to increase the<br \/>\nadult meal prices and ala carte  to meet the contract requirements. Effective<br \/>\nDecember 1, 2021, adult breakfast will be $2.20 and adult lunch will be<br \/>\n$4.00, Specialty Salads will be $3.00,Extra Entree will be $2.00 and extra<br \/>\npizza or in a bowl meal will be $2.25<\/p>\n<p>Edible Engineering &#038; the Great Gingerbread Village Festival!<\/p>\n<p>EDIBLE ENGINEERING &#038; THE GREAT GINGERBREAD VILLAGE FESTIVAL!<\/p>\n<p>Congratulations to all of our SFMS students who participated in this years&#8217;<br \/>\nEdible Engineering Contest!
