Cafeteria
Frelinghuysen
Middle School offers a hot or cold, well-balanced lunch to its students
each day. Menus are published in advance and posted in the cafeteria
as well as on the web. Snacks and ice cream are sold daily. Free or
reduced priced lunches are available for qualified students in accordance
with Federal and State guidelines. Parents may open a “lunch
account” by prepaying the cafeteria. Student ID’s will
be “swiped” for accounting purposes for free or reduced
lunches or pre-paid lunches. This year, Frelinghuysen will participate
in the National School Breakfast Program. Students receiving free
or reduced lunch will receive the same benefits at breakfast with
no additional paperwork.
• Breakfast will be available to all students during homeroom
only.
• No money will be collected in homeroom; all meals must be
prepaid in the cafeteria the week before. Payment may be made in cash
or check made out to the Food Services Dept.
• Reduced Breakfast is $.30 and a Paid Breakfast is $1.25.
• A monthly menu will be distributed the first day of school.
There will not be any choices or substitutions allowed.
• Students who are absent will be credited for their meal.
• Breakfast will not be offered on half days or delayed openings.
• Lunch is not served on half days.
ATTENDANCE
(FILE CODE 5113)
Board of Education policy states that students must
be in attendance for 164 days in order to be considered to have successfully
completed the instructional program requirements of the grade/courses
in which they are enrolled. Therefore, all students are expected to
be prompt and in attendance when school is in session. Absences may
include the following: personal illness, illness in the family, death
in the family, an appointment with a doctor (if it cannot be made
outside of school hours), religious holidays and unforeseen emergencies.
Parents must notify the attendance office at (973) 292- 2200, ext.
8066 when their child is absent.
Tardiness
to School
Students who are not in their homeroom by the 7:55
AM bell are tardy and the attendance card will be marked as such.
Students entering the building after 7:55 must pick up an admission
slip from the Attendance Office. Approved reasons for tardiness are
the same as for early dismissal. Late bus arrival will not be marked
on a student’s records. All others are unexcused and will warrant
an administrative referral after five tardies.
