EMS uses MealTime to maintain lunch accounts. MealTime balances are imported monthly into our FACTS billing system so that you do NOT need to add money to your student's MealTime account. Creating an account is OPTIONAL, but allows you, the parent, access to see all the lunch activity for your student in one place. If you would like to create an account, contact the business office.

Eating together builds community
Our dining hall staff prepares nutritious homemade meals daily. Most menu items are made from scratch, or freshly baked each morning, including homemade desserts and cookies. Each meal provides the required food groups, meeting FDA regulations and recommendations, and other compliance standards.
Hot lunch and salad option is available daily. See the menu below and on the web calendar. Lunch count is taken at the beginning of each day, so students can decide to purchase at the last moment. Packers can choose to purchase milk, ice cream, or a dinner roll to supplement their packed lunch.
Students are welcome to eat outside of the building in designated monitored spots. or in the dining hall.
Our kitchen maintains a restaurant license and staff holds ServSafe certifications, ensuring that our food is prepared in a clean and safe environment.
