Students each lunch at School Monday through Thursday.  On Fridays, students are dismissed before lunch, unless they are attending special events.  Students either bring lunch from home, or participate in the purchased lunch programs, which are described below.  The School supplies a nutritious mid-morning snack to all students every day. 

NOTE: The Stanwich School strives to maintain a NUT-FREE environment.  We have a number of students with serious allergies to nuts, so it is vital that parents and students NOT bring or send any food to School containing nuts.  This includes peanut butter sandwiches and peanut butter cookies.  Please make sure there are no nuts present before sending food to School in a lunchbox or for a birthday treat or classroom event.  Everyone's cooperation is appreciated. 

The Stanwich School offers a purchased lunch program for students in Grades K-6 and a separate program for students in Grades 7-9.  Parents may order hot or cold bagged lunches provided by these local food services, as an alternative to packing lunch boxes at home. 

Parents have the option of purchasing lunch as often or infrequently as desired, using an online service.  Lunches are prepared and packaged and delivered to both the Stanwich Road and the Riverside locations each day. Each bag is marked with the student's name and class. Lunches are delivered to students.

These food services cannot guarantee nut-free food.  Therefore, The School does not recommend these programs for students with food allergies, sensitivities or dietary restrictions.

The School office is not involved in the lunch programs.  We ask that you DO NOT contact The School office with questions or concerns.  All payments must be made directly to the vendors and all inquiries should be made directly to them.  For additional details about the purchased lunch programs, visit Lunch Suppliers.
