Three meals and one snack are provided. You may bring snacks if you'd like; refrigeration not available.

Medications- Many students with medicinal needs have been able to join us for the program. The Health and Wellness Center on campus is staffed with medical professionals that dispense medications provided by you in a professional and discreet manner. They are also available most waking hours for issues and emergencies. 911 would take over after hours should the need arise. Medications will need to be marked with the child's name and come with the correct prescription packaging.
