Meals at School
Breakfast
Adams offers free breakfast to ALL students on a daily basis. Breakfast starts at 7:25 a.m. and is available until 9:00 a.m. daily. Students will be able to order breakfast in the cafeteria and then head to class by 7:45. Students who arrive after 7:45 may still get a breakfast and eat in the classroom.
- Cost for students: Free
- Cost for adults: $5.00 per meal
Lunch and Recess
Adams offers free lunch to ALL students on a daily basis.
Half of lunch time will be spent outdoors at recess, while the other half will be spent in the cafeteria eating. Students will always have the opportunity to eat lunch, but it may be possible for social time to be removed as a consequence.
In the event of inclement weather, students will remain indoors for recess. We are in Colorado and students should dress for the weather. We make every attempt for students to be able to go outside for fresh air. As a general guideline, we will remain indoors if the temperature is below approximately 20°F, there is a significant amount of active precipitation, winds are at dangerous levels, there is too much ice in areas designated for play, or it is deemed unsafe for students to be outside.
