A nutritious breakfast and lunch is available daily at each school. Today’s meals give students more variety and choice than ever before.
The Healthy Hunger Free Kids Act marked the most comprehensive changes to the school nutrition environment in more than a generation. Fresh fruits and vegetables are abundant on our menus. A salad bar is offered daily at the High School and twice a week at Excelsior and Oak Ridge. The majority of the grains we serve are whole grains. School baked items such as fresh bread, rolls and desserts, are made of 100 percent whole grains.
Menus are required to meet nutritional standards established by USDA.
IMPORTANT: In order to be priced as a meal, all students will be required to choose ˝ cup serving of fruit or vegetable daily. This requirement has been in effect for our elementary students for several years. It is now also required for middle and high school students. The 'meal deal' is the best value in terms of price and nutrition. A meal includes a choice of entree, up to three side dishes and milk.
Please encourage your students to select one fruit or vegetable daily – it’s the BEST choice in terms of nutrition and cost!
