We are changing some of our pizza vendors at our secondary schools. Until October 30, we will offer pizza from Pizza Hut, Dominoes and Papa John’s. We will also be serving our Big Daddy pizza twice a week.
There are some changes taking place with the USDA guidelines regarding the calorie, fat and sodium content of our meals. The National School Lunch Program must follow those guidelines. Our entire menu will be undergoing some changes during the year so that we are ready for the new guidelines in 2012-2013.
What to Expect From A School Lunch:
Low-fat milk offered every day.
Increased use of whole grain products.
Age appropriate portions and serving sizes.
A variety of fruits and vegetables every day.
Multiple choices for students to pick from at each meal.
More salad bars with a variety fruits, vegetables and low-fat protein sources.
Healthier versions of children's favorites: pizza, chicken nuggets, hamburgers
Our goal is to provide the most nutritious food possible that also pleases our students.
We will keep you updated on this page of any menu changes.thermometer
