Food and eating are an important part of every student’s day. Because we believe that students must eat well in order to learn to the best of their abilities, Lakeside Middle School’s dining room is open for breakfast, lunch, and afternoon snacks.
Healthy meals are prepared fresh each day by our SAGE Dining kitchen staff, and feature a variety of flavors. Lunch specials include everything from fajitas to pho. Led by a professional chef, our kitchen staff sources as many ingredients as possible from local sustainable farmers and producers. Vegetarian alternatives are always available, and food is labeled to help students manage food allergies.
In addition to prepared food, the kitchen offers soups, sandwiches, healthy snacks, and a salad bar. Lunch is included in the cost of attending Lakeside for all students.
Lunch clean-up at the Middle School is a community event. All students are expected to clean up after themselves and sort their waste into trash, recycling, and compost bins. Two to three times a year, students work in their advisory groups to wipe down tabletops, sweep the floor, and take out the recycling after the last lunch period.
