What is the Cheder Chabad hot lunch program?

We are a federally Subsidized Hot Lunch Program offering healthy, well-balanced menu includes whole grains and a variety of fruits and vegetables. We encourage your children to build a healthy plate – to fill half their plate with fruits and vegetables, select whole grains, and choose fat free or low-fat milk. We hope that you will also encourage your child to make these healthy eating choices. All food will be Cholov Yisroel/Pas Yisroel and delivered daily by our food provider. 

How often will hot lunch be served? 

Lunch will be served Mondays through Friday for all departments. Additionally, lunch will be served on Sundays for the boys school.

Can my child take only on pizza day only? 

Yes, children can get lunch on whatever days they want, without taking on other days.

How do I register for the hot lunch program?

All children are automatically eligible for the hot lunch program once enrolled at Cheder.

Children in Mini Gan who are just starting to eat more then baby food, please reach out to [email protected] and your child's Morah to discuss the best options of food for us to provide.

Are you able to make accommodations for allergies and or food intolerances?
We will work to provide reasonable accommodations for medically diagnosed allergies. Some accommodations that we are able to make are providing dairy free milk, and gluten free breakfast and snacks. If you child has a  medically diagnosed allergy it is very important that you submit both an allergy action plan and a diet modification plan.
