Curbside Meal Pickup from SLA!
The cafeteria staff is thrilled to welcome back the Brighten Academy community. They've made a welcome message to all of their contracted schools. Please view this short video. Curbside meal pickup is at the atrium entrance (near the front office) on every Tuesday from 3pm-5pm and on Friday 3:30-5:00pm (NEW days begin Oct 2!). Be sure to enroll in our school-wide Remind group with @brightenA to receive updates and links for meal orders. Please let us know if your family cannot pickup meals during those times.
Please click on the School Meals link to connect to SLA's website, including company information, payment portal, menus, and nutritional information!
making payment on your student's lunch account:
All families should registered at the payment portal through www.SLAlunch.com to monitor transaction and make deposits onto the lunch account. We do not accept personal checks. You may choose to stop by the cafeteria and pay in cash directly to SLA staff, but there is a delay in applying this credit to your account. No change is provided. Receipts are provided in the form of online access to transactions through the parent portal website, www.SLAlunch.com
The application portal for P-EBT benefits is now open (July 2020)! Please review these documents to learn more. Contact Kelly Bemus if you need further assistance.
