Lunches

​Just a reminder that if you signed up for lunch and are not going to be on campus to get lunch please let us know before 11:00 that day.  That way we have time to inform the cafeteria lady and she won't prepare the food.  Just today alone we had 11 out of 18 students not show up for the lunches they ordered.  That is a lot of wasted food.  At some point, it could become an issue and we could lose the hot lunch program and only be able to offer shelf-stable lunches to our families.

New Visitor Procedure

​We were required to update our check-in procedures. All people must still check in on the iPads at the school sites (students, parents, siblings, and visitors). We have added a new section to the iPad system for MO Families and this area is for non-parent family members who come to the site regularly (grandparents, non-enrolled siblings, etc.). Parents and students still need to sign in under the appropriate Parent and Student sections. All Parents and MO Family Members need to wear a MO Family Member badge while on campus and return it to the basket on the counter at the end of the day. Non-Mtn. Oaks Family Member visitors are required to have a photo taken and wear a photo ID badge given to them. The system is in place at the San Andreas site and we will be starting soon at the Sonora and Sutter Creek sites. Posted 10/10/24
