St. Monica School Hot Lunch Program

Welcome back to a new school year! Taher Professional Food Service Management is excited to be your school lunch provider again this year. We are excited to be making some positive changes to the menu this year in order to provide your child with the freshest and healthiest lunch options. Under the National School Lunch Guidelines, an “offer vs. serve” program is available – where students must choose three or more of the five meal components offered. The cost of a meal this year will be $2.50 (this does include milk). Cold lunch milk will be $.40 a half-pint.

Please click on the PDF files in the "Downloads" box to the right to launch the St. Monica School lunch menu for the current month and to learn more about the unique elements of the Taher Food Service program.

How does the lunch program at St. Monica School work?
The lunch program is computerized. Each student is given an account number that feeds into a family account. Whether you have one child or numerous children in the school, a family account is automatically created. Each child is then given an identification card that is maintained in the cafeteria so that they are not misplaced.

Each morning, your child’s teacher will collect hot lunch or cold lunch milk participant names. Your child will indicate at this time which meal choice he or she is selecting. Their name is then verified in the cafeteria as they pass the lunch checkpoint. Your child’s lunch identification card will then be computer scanned and the cost of a hot lunch or cold lunch milk will be deducted from the family account. The system works the same way as a checking account. Your family must maintain a positive balance in order for your child to draw purchases from it. You are encouraged to send regular payments on a weekly or monthly basis to cover anticipated meals. The money remains in your account until your child draws from it. Money will be credited into accounts as necessary. Checks will need to be made out to the St. Monica School Lunch Program.

Lunches must be paid for in advance. Accounts must be kept up to date. You are now able to view your lunch account status on line at any time. In order to do so, please log on to www.taher.com/schools/northshore/home.htm. Please note: you will be leaving the St. Monica School website with this link.
