Food Service

We proudly serve healthy breakfasts and lunches at our schools daily. Our school meals meet USDA nutritional requirements, including:

  • Whole grain-rich entrees (with many items baked from scratch, in-house at our Community Connections Bakery)

  • Fresh fruits & veggies (local when in season)

  • Items that are low in sodium and added sugar 

Kids who eat school meals are more likely to consume fruits, vegetables, and milk at breakfast and lunch.

Learn more about our program below!

The 2026-2027 Application for Free or Reduced-Price meals is now available. A new application must be completed every school year. Applying for free or reduced-price meals can also help the district gain access to additional funding -- so apply today!
