FOOD SERVICES

Good nutrition and academic success go hand in hand!

Our Food Services Department consists of a team of food and nutrition professionals who are dedicated to students’ health, well-being, and their ability to learn. We support academic success by providing healthy meal choices while promoting lifelong nutrition and fitness practices.

Nutritional Excellence

All of our campuses participate in the National School Lunch Program (NSLP). The NSLP is a federally assisted meal program that provides nutritionally balanced, low cost or free meals to qualifying students. The food and beverages we sell or serve on our campuses meet the state and federal requirements, which are based on the USDA Dietary Guidelines. We encourage our families to apply for meal benefits by completing a Free and Reduced Meal Application (located in the News section of our Nutrislice website).

Does your child have special dietary needs? We can accommodate that. Simply submit a request form (available from the school nurse), and turn it in to our front office staff.

Breakfast

Did you know that breakfast increases your child’s brain power? Our bodies convert breakfast food into energy for use by our brain. When children skip breakfast, they must rely on the energy from their last meal to fuel their brain. Without breakfast, kids typically have a gap of twelve hours or more between dinner and lunch. This can make kids tired and restless.

Our school breakfast ensures your child starts the school day well-nourished and ready to learn.
