Our Mission: To efficiently provide nutritionally balanced meals according to the National School Lunch Program guidelines, at a reasonable cost to the students and staff of HSE, while promoting nutrition as a vital part of the educational process.
Student nutrition is an important piece of the educational process,
and healthy eating is part of the daily curriculum at HSE.
The Hamilton Southeastern Food Service Department strives to
serve nutritious, appetizing meals that comply with the USDA Dietary Guidelines
for Americans. School lunches must provide age/grade appropriate calorie levels
and 1/3 of the recommended dietary allowances for protein, calcium, iron, vitamin
A, and vitamin C, as well as meet guidelines for total fat and saturated fat.
Lunch Menus
HSE's lunch menus are offered on a recurring four-week schedule. The high school also offers daily specials in all other serving areas. A master menu is distributed to all students at the beginning of the year. Additional copies can be downloaded from this webpage (see sidebar at right). Complete menus are listed below along with a la carte items, or you can click here to view what's for lunch this week.

Students may pay for lunch as it is purchased each day or can take advantage of our debit-card system. All buildings use a debit-card system, and students may deposit any amount of money into an account on any day. There is a prepayment form that can be used when sending lunch money. Click here to access the HSE Lunch Prepayment Form.
Account balances remaining at the end of the school year will stay in the student's account and will be available for use the next year. Since the accounts are based on student ID numbers, account balances follow the student from grade to grade and school to school. Free and reduced lunch applications are available in all buildings and the Administration Office.
The ability to prepay for school lunches, check account balances and payment history on-line is now available. PAMS Lunchroom, a Parent Account Management System, offers the service to Hamilton Southeastern parents.
Effective March 15, 2007, parents or guardians can no longer expect to view purchases on-line using the PayPams system, UNLESS they have charged a dollar amount on-line into their students(s) account. Parents have been able to look up their student(s) purchases without putting a dollar amount on their credit card accounts. This will no longer be a service offered by the PayPams system. HSE food services had nothing to do with this decision, but felt although there were some changes to the service the key reason most parents utilize the service is for the convenience and opportunity of charging on-line. We regret any frustration or inconvenience this may cause.
The USDA and the State of Indiana are equal opportunity providers and employers.
