Lunch Program
A Federal Lunch Program is available beginning the first week of September. Free and reduced lunches are provided based on family income. Contact the school office for information and forms.

Parents support this program by supervising the lunch room. We require that the students adhere to the Code of Conduct rules.

Students in grades K-5 have a daily snack time, usually prior to morning recess. Parent/guardians are encouraged to send a healthy snack such as a piece of fruit.


Homework Lab
SS Cyril & Methodius School Homework Lab is our attempt to address the need for students to obtain more personal assistance with their homework. This is a wonderful opportunity to get more “one on one” tutoring for your child. This program has proved very successful. Students show clear improvement in their grades and they are cared for in the school by a certified teacher.

Homework Lab hours are from 2:30 – 4:30

Fees:
$3.50 an hour
$6.00 a day
$25.00 a week

Parents need to pay in advance or on the day of the service. On early dismissal days, hourly rate applies. Students must be picked up by parent/guardian by 4:30 P.M. or have prior permission to walk home alone. Students who are NOT picked up by 4:30 P.M. will be charged $5.00 for every 15 minutes that the parent/guardian is late, not exceeding a maximum of $20.00.

Transportation
Free and reduced RTA tickets or parental reimbursement are available from the resident school district. Forms are provided during the first week of school in the parent folder or from the school office.

Guidance Programs
SS Cyril & Methodius School is a regular participant in the DARE program of the Lakewood Police Department. This and additional drug awareness and peer programs are valuable additions to our curriculum. Parents are asked to support these programs
