2023-2024 Breakfast

Breakfast is served daily in the cafeteria 30 minutes before 1st bell. Short on time? Wake up late? Don’t skip the most important meal of the day! A wide selection of nutritious grab & go items available to start the day off right and get you to class on time.

A breakfast costs $2.00 and consists of a fruit, whole grain, & milk. Students receiving reduced lunch are also eligible for a reduced priced breakfast and pay $0.30 per meal. Students receiving free lunch also are eligible for a free breakfast daily. All students must key in their student ID at the register to receive the correct benefit. Bishop Chatard participates in the School Breakfast Program (SBP).

Menu will be posted here when available.

2023-2024 Lunch

Students can bring their own lunch or create a school lunch from cafeteria offerings in two serving lines every day. To ensure speed of service, students are strongly encouraged to review the daily menu here. It is greatly appreciated to have an idea of what you would like to purchase before you come through the line.

The cost for a Trojan Lunch is $4.25. Lunch consists of 5 components: entre, grain item, vegetable, fresh fruit and milk. Students must choose 3 of the components (one must be a fruit or a vegetable) to have your meal considered a lunch. A student may choose up to 2 servings of fruit and vegetables (fruit juice is limited to 1 per meal).

Because we participate in the National School Lunch Program, we can provide free and reduced price (.40) lunches to students who qualify. Financial guidelines and applications are available throughout the school year on our Free & Reduced Price Meal Program Page. Participation is confidential, and students access this benefit by using their Meal Time account just like everyone else.

Ala Carte offerings include Entrees, sandwiches, pizza, fresh vegetable trays, & yogurt parfaits. Snacks offered for purchase include baked chips, ice cream novelties, fruit snacks, bottled water, Gatorade & Snapple products.

Paying for Lunches

Touchless pay stations are used in the Cafeteria via a software program called Mealtime. Temporary scan cards will be distributed to freshmen during orientation. These can be digitally stored on the students phone or iPad. Once student ID’s are distributed, these can also be used to pay in the lunch line.

The café does not accept payment at the point of sale nor give change. It is strongly encouraged that payments be deposited through www.MyMealtime.com. Alternately, check/cash payments can be submitted via our dropbox.

Pay online at MyMealtime

Your MyMealtime account can be “loaded” with money and used as needed to purchase food in the cafeteria at meals. Money can be deposited directly through the software, or via cash/check (see below). Every student has an account, connected with their student ID number.
We encourage everyone to use this www.MyMealtime.com account.

• MyMealTime mobile app to manage your account

Pay by check or deposit

Checks or cash may be dropped off in the secure dropbox outside the cafeteria (bottom of the stairs- Door #10). These are then credited to the student’s MyMealtime account. (Please be sure to include the student’s name and ID number on the check. Allow 24 hours for processing.)

Free/Reduced Price School Meals Program

BCHS participates in the National School Lunch Program, allowing us to provide free and reduced price lunches to students who qualify. Financial guidelines and applications are available throughout the school year on the school’s website. Please know that participation is confidential and students access this benefit by using their Meal Time account just like everyone else.
Families may apply for Free/Reduced Lunch Benefits (& also Textbook Assistance) beginning July 15, 2023.

Should I apply for the Free/Reduced Meals Program every year? YES!

Yes! Families that believe they would qualify for free and reduced meals should submit a free meal application. This application can also help with qualifying for other assistance programs, such as Textbook Assistance, for the family and student. Benefits from completing applications stretch far beyond the cafeteria and impact students in the classroom and at home.

• Applications for the Free/Reduced School Meals Program need to be submitted each school year.
• Applications open July 15, 2023.
• Families do not need to apply ONLY if students are directly certified: those who receive Medicaid, TANF, SNAP, etc. Qualified families will be notified. If you should be receiving benefits and have not received formal notification by the first lunch, please contact the foodservice director.
• The student’s ID# is needed to apply online. Incoming Freshman families can apply for free/reduced lunch & activate their mealtime account only after their student is loaded in PowerSchool and they receive an ID#.
• If a student qualifies for free/reduced lunches, he/she automatically qualifies for textbook assistance
