Nutrition

Never a cookie-cutter, and always an innovator, we pride ourselves on the passion of our students, our staunch commitment to wholesome, nutritious meal preparation, our stringent sanitation and food safety program, and our dedication to serving the students well, each and every time they sit down to eat.

We understand that environmental stewardship is important to the educational development of students. Going beyond simply environmental awareness, we want to be environmentally innovative, instructive, creative, and proactive.

All processed foods, hydrogenated oils, high fructose corn syrup, refined sugars, refined flour, dyes, nitrates, additives, and chemicals are banned from our food list. Local, organic milk is served throughout cafeterias in addition to organic fruits and vegetables as much as possible.

Eating a balanced meal while sitting down calmly is important in the development of a healthy child. It helps them to digest food properly, avoid stomach aches, and avoid sapped energy levels in the afternoon.

If children are eating food that’s nourishing AND tastes delicious, they can focus and learn and hopefully take a little bit of their happy bellies into the rest of their lives.
