Good nutrition and learning go hand in hand.
The Nutrition Services department is made up of a team of food and nutrition professionals that are dedicated to students' health, well being, and their ability to learn. We support learning by promoting healthy habits for lifelong nutrition and fitness practices.
Beginning Tuesday, Jan 5th, continuing through Jan 15th, D60 Foodworks will continue to offer drive-through or walk-up meal distribution on Tuesday and Friday at five sites.Once students return to in-person learning, meal distribution will continue on Fridays only. No registration is required.Meals are available for all students between the ages of 1 and 18, will be distributed in the rear parking lot, or front bus lane, between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. on Tuesday and Friday, at the following schools:Centennial HS • Central HS • East HS • South HS • Risley MS
* Meals are served on a first come first served basis based on product availability. Though we will strive to ensure we can feed all who wish to participate.
On Tuesday, children will receive 6 meals (3 breakfasts and 3 lunches) and 8 meals (4 breakfasts and 4 lunches) on Friday. White milk will be distributed in half-gallon portions and while available, additional fruits and vegetables will be offered in bulk format to elementary-aged children.
All meals will exceed the USDA nutritional requirements, with the USDA’s Summer Food Service Program funding the meal distribution.
Children do not have to be present to receive meals.
Those who drive to a distribution site are asked to remain in their vehicle, as the meals will be passed through the window, based on the number of recipient children. Meals cannot be consumed on site.
The district encourages families to continue to be proactive in reducing the risk of COVID-19 by not congregating at the distribution site once the meals are received. Masks should be worn when in public, with the frequent washing of hands recommended.
When sneezing or coughing, do so into a tissue, and if you are feeling sick, remain at home.
