Menu change tomorrow...
It will be chicken tenders with a breadstick instead of chicken nuggets and goldfish.
We will still have all of the regular sandwich choices and entrée salads.
We apologize for any inconvenience.
Just a reminder that starting tomorrow, 9/7/21, all staff & students will be required to wear masks to minimize quarantines while in school.
So, have your student grab their favorite mask! We can’t wait to see them tomorrow morning! #socsowen #beawesometoday
