Welcome to Food Services

 

 

Good nutrition and learning go hand in hand!


The Nutrition Services department is comprised 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.


Meals, foods and beverages sold or served at schools meet state and federal requirements which are based on the USDA Dietary Guidelines. We provide students with access to a variety of affordable and appealing foods that meet the health and nutritional needs of students.

California is the first state in the nation to permanently adopt FREE breakfast and lunch for all K-12 students. We are grateful for California's leadership and the 200+ organizations that advocated to create the largest free school meal program in the United States.
Chawanakee is now serving 2nd Chance Breakfast at all sites. We recognize that eating a good breakfast is important in helping with brain function, especially memory and focus. That is why we now offer before school traditional breakfast and second change grab and go during first recess. 

Healthy School Meals for All

Eight states have taken permanent actions to make sure hunger is not a barrier to children’s success. California, Colorado, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, New Mexico, and Vermont passed state laws allowing their schools to serve healthy school breakfasts and lunches to all their students at no cost.
