    Welcome to School Nutrition Services!
     
     Our School Nutrition Department is 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 nutrition needs of students. 
     
    At MCS, we offer FREE Universal breakfast daily to all students at all schools.  The breakfast menu offers a variety of fresh fruits, and whole grain selections to help start the day off right for our students.  At some of our schools, we provide Breakfast in Classroom, Grab 'n Go and 2nd Chance Breakfast..  Our Lunch Program offers a wide variety of healthy menu options that meet all 5 meal components & guidelines for both elementary students and teens. The 5 components that make up a meal includes: meat/meat alternate, whole grain, vegetable, fruit and milk.
