School Staff and Teacher In-Service Lunch Catering in St. Louis
Individually packaged box lunches for teacher in-service days, professional development, faculty meetings, district offices, staff appreciation, training sessions, and education events throughout St. Louis.
Right! Ontime, Everytime. Organized staff lunches without the buffet setup.
School Staff Lunches Made Easier
Coordinating lunch for teachers, administrators, support staff, and district employees can require collecting meal selections, managing dietary requests, confirming attendance, scheduling delivery, and making sure every meal reaches the correct person.
Best Box Lunches simplifies the process with complete individual meals, straightforward online ordering, dependable 15-minute delivery windows, and personalized name labels when your staff needs them.
In-Service Ready
Individually packaged lunches work well for teacher in-service days, professional development, curriculum meetings, training sessions, and staff workshops.
Easy Distribution
Each employee receives a complete lunch, so staff members do not need to wait in a buffet line or divide shared sandwiches, sides, desserts, and utensils.
Name Labels Available
Personalized Ordering lets each teacher or staff member choose a meal and allows us to label the completed lunch with that person’s name.
Built for School Administrators and Staff Organizers
Principals, administrative assistants, district coordinators, human resources teams, department leaders, professional development coordinators, and parent organizations often arrange staff meals while managing many other responsibilities.
Choose quantities yourself with EZ Online Order, or use Personalized Ordering when teachers and staff members need to make individual selections. Both regular online ordering options are due by 3:00 PM the business day before delivery.
Staff Meals Without Buffet Disruption
School schedules often allow a limited amount of time for lunch. Buffet lines can delay the next training session, require additional setup, and create cleanup work for staff members afterward.
Individual box lunches allow teachers and employees to pick up a complete meal and return to the classroom, library, cafeteria, conference room, auditorium, office, or scheduled activity. Each lunch stays together in one clear, stackable container for organized distribution.

Two Ways to Order School Staff Lunch Catering
EZ Online Order
Use EZ Online Order when one organizer knows the quantities needed for each entrée, side, dessert, and drink.
This option works well for teacher in-service days, faculty meetings, district training, and staff events when individual name labels are not required.
Personalized Ordering
Use Personalized Ordering when each teacher or staff member will select a meal and the completed lunches need individual name labels.
The organizer creates the order and shares a link so each participant can submit their own meal selection.
Submit regular EZ Online Orders and Personalized Online Orders by 3:00 PM the business day before delivery.
Planning Ahead for a Teacher In-Service Day
Teacher in-service dates, professional development programs, and district meetings are often scheduled well before the final attendance count is known. Save the Date reserves your delivery spot while teachers and staff members confirm their plans.
Use Save the Date when the staff event is scheduled but the final lunch count has not been confirmed.
Finalize attendance, dietary needs, lunch selections, and school delivery instructions.
Submit the completed order by 3:00 PM two business days before the event date.
