What time does your dc eat lunch at school?

We had open house Wed. and saw that L will be eating lunch at 10:30am.  That is super early for him.  He is used to having lunch at noon at home.  Even at preschool his lunch was at noon.  He will have breakfast most days at school from 8:10-8:30am and then lunch 2hrs later.  He wont be home until 4pm and I KNOW he will be starving by then.  His afternoon snack is almost going to have to be a sandwich or mini meal of some sort to last untl dinner at 6pm.  

He does get a snack time at school so I will have to ask tomorrow what time it is.  Im hoping its not too close to lunch.  Poor thing is going to be too hungry in the afternoon to pay attention to his teacher/learning.  

I will also have to check on what his snack is.  We pay $10/mnth for a snack each day.  If its something junky and not satisfying or unhealthy Im going to be "that mom" and request to send L a snack each day instead.  Its not the $$ but that Im worried about him being hungry in the afternoon and needs a filling snack.  (any ideas on what to send just in case)  

So, what time is your childs lunch?

    B-fast is served at 6:55, but she eats that at home about the same time. Lunch is from 10:25-11:55. She goes to the afterschool program there at has a snack at about 2 then we eat dinner at 6:30 so it balances out for us. 

    Actually I have been known to start making lunch at home at 10:30, especially if we went for a long walk or something, then nap at 11-1. Only in school they don't get the long nap.

    In K lunch is at 11.  First grade is 11:30 and it's 12:00 by second grade.  

    They get a snack around 2.  In K the parents take turns bringing in one snack a month and the class shares.  In first grade and beyond each kid brings in their own snack.  

    They get out of school at 3:40.

    My son eats breakfast when he gets up in the morning around 6:30.  School starts here at 7:45.  Lunch for Kindergarten is at 10:30.  Snack time around 1:30.  School gets out at 2:45.  If the kids want a snack, it's up to the parents to send a snack, I just pack a healthy lunch with extras and let him pick what he eats at lunch and what he saves for his snack.  When he gets home we always have a snack.  Dinner used to be at 5:00/5:30 but now it's been pushed back to 6:30.

    4th - 11:00, 1st - 12:30

    They both have a morning snack and the 4th grade also has snack at 3 (they're dismissed at 4).
