Cafeteria
Prices As you all know, the cost of everything is going up. All of the prices that the cafeteria pays
have increased also. Therefore, we are going to have to raise prices in the cafeteria as needed. Our cafeteria
is not open to make money, it is there to provide a service for our students. We must break even, so that we can continue
to provide this service. Mrs. Carol White and Mrs. Fay Engel do such a great job in the cafeteria and they are so good
to us all, we are so lucky to have them.
