Market day is a company that offers a variety of frozen foods and household

monthly specials. You can send the form back to school with your child, or
place your order on the website (www.marketday.com). All products are
delivered to the school once a month for pick-up. You can pay in person with
cash, check or EBT cards. Credit cards can be used for purchases made via the
internet. For more information, please contact Brigid Matlock at
