The Nutritional Services Department operates the School Breakfast Program, the National School Lunch Program, the Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program and the After-School Snack Program throughout the district, and is made up of a team of food and nutrition professionals that are dedicated to students' health, well being and their ability to learn.

We support learning by promoting healthy habits for lifelong nutrition and fitness practices.
