Lunch Program

Union Academy does not currently have a traditional cafeteria.  The school provides catered lunch from a different vendor each day.  The menu is set up on an a la carte format, enabling you to order as much or as little as you need, and it will stay basically the same each week.  Some items are available on a daily basis, such as chips, drinks, and ice cream.  These items can be purchased through the order form each month or on a cash basis during your child’s lunch period.

If you are able to volunteer during the hours of 10:30am - 1:15pm, or any part of that time to help serve the meals, please contact Karen Little for the Lower School at 704-283-5678 and Kathy Doublin for the Upper School at 704-238-8883 or 704-233-4143.  This would be a great way to get in your volunteer hours!
