AHSPA FUNDRAISING PROGRAMS
In support of these initiatives, the AHSPA runs many amazing fundraising programs throughout the school year. It is with the support of our incredibly engaged families that these programs are such a success.
Hot Lunch Orders
The hot lunch program is offered every day. Below is the weekly schedule by campus (vendors are subject to change).
You can generally order up to 3 school days before a food program day; however, this can vary due to Shabbat or early dismissal.
As a reminder, everyone must register before you will be able to submit any orders for this academic year. Branch-specific emails will be sent out before the start of
school.
Any questions or comments can be directed to ahspahotlunches@ahschools.com.
