Welcome to Food and Nutrition Services
The food service team will focus on food safety and providing safe choices for the well-being of all students. Our food service department will produce high quality, fresh, tasty foods with nutritional integrity. Our commitment is to provide students with a variety of menu choices, offered at an affordable price. Our goal is to support, educate, and encourage healthy eating habits and to work with families to do the same. We support learning by promoting healthy eating habits and providing good nutrition. Our food service team will treat all students with dignity and contribute to positive impacts on the student's daily experience.
Scituate Public School District participates in the National School Lunch program at all of our schools. Meals, foods, and beverages sold or served in schools meet State and Federal requirements which are based on the USDA Dietary Guidelines. A hot topic in school lunch programs is the changes that are being implemented with the new law, the Healthy, Hunger Free Kids Act of 2010. These new guidelines ensure that school lunches are healthy and well balanced.
Our school menus include:
- Whole Grain offerings
- Increased variety of fresh fruits and vegetables
- Focus on lean protein choices
- Smart snack options, A-list approved items
- Fat free and Low-fat Milk
- Reduced sodium content
- Smaller portion sizes with age appropriate calorie limits
School Lunch is an easy, convenient option based in good nutrition!
Within our schools we have a dedicated team of food service professionals that look forward to serving our community; families, students and staff.
