THE NATIONAL SCHOOL LUNCH PROGRAM

A Federal and State regulated program.  No local tax money is used for this program.  All funds are derived from federal, state and money collected from students and staff.  Federal regulations control the menu planning.  Fat is not to exceed 30% of calories and less than 10% of calories from saturated fat on a weekly basis. These target and others are set to meet RDA guidelines.  We will publish a complete meal on every menu.  For every two weeks published you will find we meet all regulated targets.  This assumes your child has made wise choices and is consuming their complete meal.  Regulations can only help us offer good choices.
