About Nutrition Servicces

Good nutrition and learning go hand-in-hand!

The Nutrition Services department is made up of a team of food and nutrition professionals that are dedicated to students' health, well-being, and 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.

Summer EBT

The Summer Electronic Benefit Transfer Program (Summer EBT) is a new federal nutrition program that provides grocery benefits during the summer months to families with children eligible for free or reduced-price school meals. Summer EBT benefits are $120 per eligible child per summer. Summer EBT and summer meals work together to address the summer hunger gap. Children can participate in both Summer EBT and summer meals, providing families with more food resources during the summer months. Please ensure the mailing address we have on file for your child is accurate so that our students don't miss out on these benefits. Cards will be mailed out by the  California Department of Social Services beginning June 3, 2024, through October 15, 2024. Please remember not all students will receive these benefits. 

Summer EBT benefits can be used to purchase:
  • fruits and vegetables
  • meat, poultry, and fish
  • dairy products
  • breads and cereals
  • other foods (such as snack foods and non-alcoholic beverages)
Summer EBT cannot be used to purchase:
  • hot foods
  • pet foods
  • cleaning or household supplies
  • personal hygiene items
  • medicine
