The District's elementary schools are served a complete type-A meal which we prepare at the central kitchen located in the middle/high school building. These type-A meals are served to each student by district cafeteria employees. Menus for the elementary schools may be found on the district website and also in the local newspapers.
Due to the wellness guidelines that have been required by the state, many of the sandwich and snack items are not available to the middle school, which includes soda. The state has approved a list of healthy options (snacks & drinks) which the students have accepted and now look forward to purchasing each day. When your child enters the high school, he/she should be ready to make responsible eating choices. We encourage the tray meals, but know our children are turning into young adults and at this time are given more opportunities for choice.
