Fresh Fruit Items and Bottled Water


Dear Saint Theresa Parents, Students, Teachers and Staff,

The Saint Theresa Nutrition Department is announcing some additions to the school lunch menu. We will be offering water bottles for sale during regular meal times. These water bottles may be purchased from the student’s accounts or by cash. They will cost $1.00 each.

Water bottles will be available to students that bring hot or cold lunch, similar to the milk cartons that are currently offered.

The following rules regarding bottled water will be applied:

  • These will be available to all students during all meal times.

  • They must be consumed by the person who purchased it, and may not be shared with anyone.

  • The water bottle must be thrown away at the end of the meal session, it may not be taken out of the cafeteria.


We will also be offering fresh fruit as an ala carte item beginning in May. These items may be purchased in addition to the regular hot lunch and will not be available to students that bring cold lunch. They may be purchased either by cash or taken out of the students accounts.

The following rules regarding fruit items will be applied:

  • They must be consumed by the student who purchased it, and not shared with anyone.

  • They must be thrown away at the end of the meal session and may not be taken out of the cafeteria.

If you do not wish your student to purchase extra items, please tell them.You can also email me to let me know and I will add this restriction to their accounts. They will then not be allowed to purchase ala carte items.

The Saint Theresa Nutrition Department believes in offering nutritious food as ala carte choices. We will not be offering pop, candy or ice cream as ala carte items at STS.

f you have any questions, concerns or suggestions please feel free to contact me at rmccarthy@sainttheresaiowa.org, or at (515) 277-0178.

Thank you,

Ronda McCarthy
Saint Theresa Nutrition Department
