I hope this message finds you well.  We will soon be embarking on a new school year; we are committed to fostering healthy habits.  We are mindful of healthy eating.  Students must take a fruit or a vegetable at each meal, and we encourage them to at least try it.  We have increased our offerings of fresh fruits and vegetables during lunch and are introducing new items when possible.

Our district has a wellness policy, which recognizes that student wellness and proper nutrition are related to students’ physical well-being, growth, development, concentration, and readiness to learn.  You are welcome to view our Wellness Policy posted on our webpage:
