If the minimum categories are not selected to create a meal, the student will be charged a la carte pricing.
In addition to an entrée and a milk, elementary and middle school students may select up to 3 fruit and/or vegetable side options at lunch with only 1 of them being a juice. High school students may select up to 4 fruit and/or vegetable side options at lunch.
