A Night at the Bayou was one to remember for the Class of 2026. 💜💛

Held at the historic Train Depot in Chehalis on Saturday, May 9, this year’s prom brought together laughter, memories, and a celebration of friendships that have grown through the years.

Mrs. Richardson shared that she and her husband, Steven, enjoyed chaperoning the evening and capturing special moments with these amazing students, including 12 seniors who have attended Onalaska School District since kindergarten. 🎓

Congratulations to the Class of 2026 on an unforgettable night. 💛💜

If you’ve ever wondered what real superheroes look like, you won’t find them in capes. You’ll find them in hairnets, moving at lightning speed between ovens, coolers, and a line of hungry students that somehow never ends.

Meet the dream team: Stephanie, Selena, Maria, Rosa, Toni, and their behind-the-scenes mastermind, Jerry.

Every morning starts before most of us have even found the snooze button. Breakfast for three schools? No problem. By the time the first bell rings, they’ve already fed a small army and are gearing up for round two. And by “gearing up,” I mean orchestrating what can only be described as a culinary marathon at full sprint.

Stephanie is legendary for her rolls. There are rumors that students can smell them from three hallways away and begin migrating like birds. Selena keeps things moving with the precision of a traffic controller, somehow knowing exactly when the pizza needs to come out and when the next batch needs to go in. Maria can turn a tray of roasted chick peas into something students actually get excited about, which frankly feels like magic. Rosa handles the chaos with a calm that suggests she may, in fact, have superpowers. And Toni? Toni can plate logger nachos faster than most people can decide what they want for lunch.

And then there are the cheese zombies. No one truly understands how they disappear so quickly, but we suspect it involves teleportation or a secret student alert system.

Through it all, they are feeding elementary, middle, and high school students breakfast, lunch, and even snacks. That is hundreds upon hundreds of meals, smiles, and “thank yous” packed into one very fast-paced day.

And quietly making it all possible is Jerry. You might not see him in the lunch line, but he is the reason everything runs like a well-oiled machine. He knows when to order, how to stretch a budget, and somehow finds the best deals like a grocery store ninja. While the team is out front performing miracles, Jerry is behind the scenes making sure they have everything they need to succeed.

Together, they are not just a kitchen staff. They are a team of everyday heroes who show up, work hard, laugh through the chaos, and make sure every student is fed and cared for.

So today, on School Lunch Hero Day, we say thank you to Stephanie, Selena, Maria, Rosa, Toni, and Jerry. You keep our schools running, our students happy, and our bellies full.

And if anyone happens to know the secret behind those cheese zombies… we’d love to hear it.
