Student Nutrition

Education does not stop in the classrooms at Susanville School District. The Nutrition Services Program is excited to announce that we are contributing to the positive efforts in reducing our waste in order to help protect our environment. This year we will be teaching students about recycling and reusing. The first step we are taking as a District, is to eliminate as much waste as possible in our cafeterias. This year, students will be ditching plastic cutlery and using reusable silverware!

Most students are taught at home about recycling and reusing. We would like to reinforce this valuable lesson at school as well. 
The Food Service program has already implemented wonderful programs like Harvest of The month and Salad Bars that offer a wide variety of fresh fruits and vegetables. This year we will continue to add fun and exciting learning opportunities and activities like Dairy Council Nutrition Lessons, Recipe Taste Testing's and Reduce, Reuse, Recycle!

You can visit these fun websites to learn ways to implement healthy eating habits at home and learn more ways to do your part for the environment. 
Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to serve your children.
