Good nutrition is an essential component, not only in the health and well-being of our students but also in producing the most conducive environment for learning. Establishing a well-balanced diet, including a variety of fruits and vegetables, whole grains, low-fat dairy, and lean meats or meat alternatives, is linked to continued healthy eating patterns through adulthood, reducing the risk of mortality and the development of chronic diseases, such as diabetes and high blood pressure. Students who eat a healthful breakfast and lunch are also able to focus better in classes, allowing them to perform to their fullest potential. That is why the food service department is dedicated to offering high quality, nutritious products that both taste good and are good for our students.
The Student Wellness Committee meets a minimum of 1 time per year. Members include instructional staff, administrators, food service staff, students, parents, and community stakeholders. The purpose of the Student Wellness Committee is to review district guidelines and goals for physical education and activity, nutrition education, and nutrition guidelines. The current Local School Wellness policy can be found in the Board Policies page of our website. Please click here to view a PDF copy of that policy.
