Between preparing delicious food, adhering to strict nutrition standards, navigating student food allergies, and offering service with a smile, Brazosport ISD nutrition professionals have a lot on their plate. On Friday, May 3, 2024 our schools will show their appreciation for their school nutrition staff as part of
School Lunch Hero Day.
From their friendly greetings in the cafeteria and the love they dish out with every student’s meal, to how they encourage kids to eat more fruits and vegetables, our school nutrition professionals are truly heroes.
Federal nutrition standards ensure that school cafeterias always offer low-fat or fat-free milk, fruits, vegetables, whole grains and lean protein. School meals also meet limits on calories, sodium and unhealthy fats. The importance and nutritional value of school meals are well documented. For many children, school lunch is the most important and nutrient-rich meal of their day.
Please take this opportunity to thank our school nutrition professionals who serve over 11,000 students in Brazosport ISD each day.
