Child Nutrition
Our Mission
We exist not only to prepare lunch, but to prepare students to make good choices. Making good choices that will lead to lifelong health and well-being.
The Child Nutrition Program has three main goals:
1) provide healthy options that allow students to practice nutritious eating,
2) make them student-friendly options that everyone will enjoy, and
3) make it affordable to all families.
Our Staff
Each school has its own Child Nutrition Program Manager. See the list below to contact your school's manager if you have a need.
The free/reduced meal application is now available online!
