Lunch Program

FREE BREAKFAST AND LUNCH IS BEING OFFERED TO ALL STUDENTS AND THEIR NON-ELEVATE SIBLINGS FOR THE ENTIRE 20/21 SCHOOL YEAR.

 

Elevate School will offer a nutritious Top Notch Grab-n-Go 5-day breakfast and lunch meal pack at no cost to families.  We ask that meals be pre-ordered so that we can ensure we have enough for all families.  Drive-thru meal distribution will take place on Tuesdays from 11:30 am-12:30 pm at our Middle School Campus parking lot (8404 Phyllis Place, San Diego, CA 92123).

  • Please only order if you can pick up the meal that has been reserved for your child.
  • Parent/Guardian can pick up meals. Child does not need to be present.
  • Parent/Guardian must bring student barcode code. (If you have lost yours, please email cbahr@elevateschool.com and a new one will be made for you.)
