Menu Subject to Change:
Like school districts across the nation, we are facing unprecedented disruption in the food supply chain that will likely cause menu changes with little notice. Please know that nurturing ALL children through quality food will continue to be our central mission. When menu changes become necessary, we will try to use replacement items that are as close to the posted menu as possible. We will make every effort to communicate with school communities and school nurses about these changes. In this video, SNA (School Nutrition Association) shares what parents need to know about supply chain issues and their current impact on school meals. Please talk to your child about the potential for these variations. Thank you for your understanding and assistance
