LUNCH times

Will be updated when available. 

Lunch and adding funds to an eagle account

Lunches are ordered via the FACTS Family portal or the LCA app. They can be ordered daily or for an entire week at a time.

Click here for step-by-step instructions to order lunch via the FACTS Family portal or the app and to also add funds to an Eagle Account.

All lunch orders must be entered by 8:00 a.m. Any order placed after 8:00 a.m. will receive a brown bag "emergency" lunch, and your incidental account will be charged the hot lunch price ($5.25).

If you order a lunch and your student will be absent that day, you must call the office by 8:00 a.m. to cancel your order. Orders cannot be canceled after 8:00 a.m., and you will be charged for that day's order.

Lunch orders will be invoiced a week at a time on Friday for that week's orders. Once you receive the invoice, the charges will deduct from the account attached to your Incidentals Account in FACTS in 10 days. You can log into FACTS Family and pay the invoice with an alternative method of payment.

The office must be notified at least two weeks prior to any planned absences (2+ days). *All school work should be collected by the student before he/she leaves. However, if any additional days are missed beyond what was expected, please email your student's teachers to let them know. Please be sure to read the LCA Attendance Policy and Makeup Work information below before submitting the Extended Absence form.

LCA Attendance Policy
• Any pattern of absences which totals more than 15 days of instructional time or 15 missed class periods in one subject area per semester is cause for serious concern and may lead to a repeating of the grade, repeating of the class, or a loss of academic credit. Records of attendance shall be kept for each student.
• When the student has accumulated 10 absences in a semester, the campus principal will contact the parents or guardians and may require a meeting with them and the student to discuss the situation and possible impacts on the student’s academic standing. 
• When the student accumulates 15 absences in a semester, the parents or guardians will again be notified. At this point the student may fail those classes in which the 15 absences have occurred as outlined in our accreditation standards.

Makeup Work
• Students are responsible for seeking all assignments by contacting the teachers or through online postings. Students may make up work missed during an excused absence for full credit.
• Students will have one day to make up work for every day they were absent. 
• Announced tests for which students had adequate time or prior notice to study shall be made up on the day immediately following the absence unless determined otherwise by the teacher or campus principal. The home and school should work together to honor the student’s good faith effort to attend school following an illness by scheduling make-up tests in a manner that allows academic success. 
• Students will receive a 0 for assignments not completed.
