Welcome Back Students!
First day of school is Monday, August 15, 2016
Parents and Students,
School hours are from 7:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. We want to assure you that the well being of the students at Auburndale High School is of the utmost importance to us; for the safety of all our students we ask that no students come on our campus before 6:30 a.m.
Lunch Times
Parents & Students,
We want to assure you that the wellbeing of the students at Auburndale High School is of the utmost importance to us. We understand there are some concerns about the length of our scheduled lunch times and we wish to address these.
Our lunch schedule is set up to accommodate one-half of the school population at a time, which is approximately 800 students. Our students are not limited to sitting inside the cafeteria. In fact they have the freedom to visit any part of the campus that is being supervised during that time – this includes courtyards, the media center, the cafeteria patio or any teacher who allows lunch visits for socialization or tutoring.
The time for lunch is not just 20 minutes. The students have 8 minutes to get there from their class, 20 minutes to eat, and 8 minutes to get back to their next class. That is a total of 36 minutes. It has been our experience for the past 8 years that within 10 minutes of the start of the actual lunch time that the majority of students who wish to eat lunch are done eating.
Lunch Times:
A Lunch 10:50 a.m.-11:10 a.m.
B Lunch 11:45 a.m.-12:05 p.m.
We know that at the beginning of the school year there will be confusion and delays in the lunch lines. We watch this situation very closely and we typically extend lunch for the first few days as needed. No child will be sent away without the opportunity to get their lunch.
New this year is the opportunity for all students to get free breakfast and lunch. This will, we believe, cause more lines at the beginning of the year as students sort through which lines to get in and what they get for free. There will be a-la-carte lines that do have food for sale, and the confusion will be sorted out with these lines as quickly as possible. Again, no child will be sent away hungry. Please tell you children that if they are experiencing any kind of problem with getting lunch, finding a seat or having the time to eat to please approach any of the administrative staff that will be on duty at all lunch times. We are here to help!
