NCHS Return to School FAQ - Can students bring their lunches?
Students can still bring their lunches, but they need to bring it with them to school. No food can be delivered during lunch. As long as lunches are covered (in a lunch bag or box) they can still go in the fridge. Students will still be allowed to use the microwave. Hand sanitizer will be available near both locations so students can keep their hands clean before and after use.

This statement couldn’t be more true going into this school year #NCThunder.
