CWS Families,
We had an oversight in communicating the lunch menu changes earlier this week. Today for lunch students had chicken tenders, waffle fries, a roll, veggie tray with ranch, sidekick, fruit, and milk. We apologize for this oversight. Thank you for your understanding and continued support. Have a great weekend.
