Post the school lunch menu

A lunch menu calendar shows families this week's lunch on the public page, the website embed, and their synced phone calendar. Families can also ask for a short note each school morning.

Before you start

An owner or admin creates the calendar.

Steps

1. Go to Calendar and click Create a calendar.
2. Name it. Under What goes on it, pick Lunch menu. Click Create calendar.
3. On the lunch page, click Download the CSV template. Fill in one row per meal per day with the columns date, meal, menu, allergens.
4. Under Import a month, use Choose a CSV file, or paste the rows into the box.
5. Click Preview. Every meal is listed. Bad rows are named by their spreadsheet row number.
6. Click the Save button (it shows the number of days) and confirm.
7. To add or fix one day, use Type one day. Pick the Day and Meal, type the Menu and any allergens, and click Save day.
8. Under Menu settings, paste your district's meal account site into the Pay for lunch link box and click Save settings.
9. Go back to the calendar page and click Publish.

Good to know

• Dates can look like 2026-10-05 or 10/5/2026.
• Importing the same days again replaces them, so a corrected sheet never doubles up.
• The public page shows Monday to Friday with a Today tag and allergens. Next week is folded below.
• Pay for lunch opens the vendor's own site. SizzleGo never handles lunch money.
• Families who tick the morning note get it early on school mornings that have a menu, usually around 8 AM and never during your quiet hours. The email is free. A text costs 3 credits per 160 characters.
• Already have a calendar for lunch? Under its Settings, click Make this a lunch menu, then tick This calendar is a lunch menu and save.
