Linn-Mar Celebrates National School Lunch Week

Our district’s awesome nutrition services team is turning up the fun in the cafeterias with festive dress-up days during National School Lunch Week from October 14-18! This celebration shines a spotlight on the power of nutritious meals for our students.

Did you know that since 1962, this week has raised awareness about the National School Lunch Program (NSLP), which feeds nearly 30 million children every day? That’s a huge impact!

“It is always a fun week to celebrate in our kitchens,” said Linn-Mar Nutrition Services Manager Stacy Fish. The district employs 88 nutrition services staff who prepare meals featuring popular options like chicken nuggets, chicken strips, and chicken patties.

The district aims to increase student participation in the meal program and educate families about the benefits of school lunches. Learn more about Linn-Mar’s Nutrition Services!
