Nutritional Services

 Children are given healthy, well-balanced meals, including breakfast, lunch and two daily snacks and dinner (Bayview). This is a federally funded program. Staff and children eat together family-style. The Nutrition Program has developed a rich variety of foods and preparation styles so that students can be helped to experiment with new tastes and textures in food. Also, parents of children from diverse ethnic groups enrich our standard menus by providing recommendations to the cook and periodically assisting with the preparation of authentic meals.

 CHILREN WITH ALLERGIESWhitney Young prepares seperate dishes for children who may have allergies to the meals served. If your child has food allergies, you may provide special food if you have a signed doctor's note. Otherwise, children may not bring food to school.
   
 SPECIAL EVENTS / BIRTHDAYSSince all student birthday parties are scheduled at snack time, we recommend that parents provide healthy snack foods instead of cake and ice cream if they wish to give a classroom party for their child. Children and adults may not eat candy, cookies, sodas, gum or other high sugar foods at school. Food and drink high in sugar content are not prepared or served to the children and will not be allowed to be brought on campus. We encourage and applaud parents' creativity in designing a healthy party menu using foods and refreshments which are low in sugar, fats, and salt. Nutrition Program staff are available to help with useful suggestions for creating tasty, exciting menus which make special events more fun.
