1. The webhost for the HANC PTA Lunch websites is currently unable to connect to PayPal.  They are working quickly to resolve this issue.  You can still view the menu and choose the items you wish to order.  If you click "Next" after you make your selections, your order will be saved. When this issue has been resolved, we will send out another email to let you know that you should return to the site and finalize your orders through PayPal.

2. All accounts have been reset.  When you log in this year for the first time, you will log in as a "first-time" user.  The login is your 7-digit home phone number and the password is your last name.  You will be instructed to change your password during the registration process.  Please make sure to enter a current email address, as this will be where a password will be sent if you forget in the future.

3.  The grades have not yet been updated.  This will happen at a later date.  This will not affect your order.
