School Lunches

Thanks to federal, state and local partnerships, Food and Nutrition Services are able to offer variety and well-balanced nutritious meals at a low cost. The National School Lunch Program provides the student the opportunity of selecting a lunch consisting of 5 meal components. The student may choose 3, 4, or 5 components for the same price. A student may refuse 1 or 2 of the meal components. The idea of 3 meal components is good, 4 meal components is better and 5 meal components is best because it assures the
greatest variety and nutrient intake.

Providing Lunch Program at our district is our government’s way to assure that its financial support pays for only those meals that meet defined federal standards. School lunch meals provide an assortment of foods including salad bars and fresh fruit daily.

Because of the government’s support, choosing the school lunch meal is a real bargain.
