Nutrition
Our Food Services Department provides high quality, nutritionally sound meals, which support student learning. All meals meet the nutritional standards established by federal and state guidelines (U.S. Department of Agriculture and S.C. Department of Education).

Special Dietary Needs
We are always willing to accommodate the special dietary needs of students who are disabled. Federal regulations require us to obtain a physician’s statement that identifies:
The child’s disability and an explanation of why the disability restricts the child’s diet.
The major life activity affected by the disability.
The food or foods to be omitted from the child’s diet and the food
or choice of foods that must be substituted.
The physician’s statement should be given to a school nurse. The school’s nursing staff works with the Food Service Department to determine how to best accommodate special dietary needs. Substitutions may be limited due to availability.
