Welcome to School Nutrition Services!

 Our School Nutrition Department is dedicated to students' health, well being, and ability to learn.  We support learning by promoting healthy habits for lifelong nutrition and fitness practices.  Meals, foods, and beverages sold or served at schools meet state and federal requirements which are based on the USDA Dietary Guidelines.  We provide students with access to a variety of affordable and appealing foods that meet the health and nutrition needs of students.
