School nutrition employees follow menus and prepare meals according to standardized recipes to ensure that students receive meals that meet USDA Dietary Guidelines for Healthy Americans, so that our students are ready to learn when they get to the classroom. School nutrition employees are competent, friendly, and nurturing as they prepare and serve meals.
School cafeterias are learning centers where students, teachers, and parents develop sound nutritional practices that support a healthy lifestyle. The school nutrition program provides the fuel for student learning.
