Special Dietary Needs

  • Nutrition Services works hard to provide for all students throughout the district whatever their needs might be. Below you will find links to documents which will help you to ensure that your student receives meals that are safe and healthy. Please note that the Special Dietary Needs Documentation Form must be completed by a recognized medical authority and returned to the Kitchen Manager (at the site your student attends) in order for meal substitutions/accommodations to be evaluated and provided.
