Request for Wellness Committee Participants
The district has a Health and Wellness committee due to mandates set forth in the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010 by the USDA. We are asking you to consider participating in this committee. This group has the responsibility of reviewing, revising, and adding the new requirements to the current Health and Wellness policy. The wellness plan must consist of five components. The components are as follows:
- Nutrition education
- Physical activity
- Nutrition standards for all foods available on each school campus during the school day
- Other school-based activities designed to promote student wellness goals
- Maintain a district Wellness Advisory council and monitor and review the policy
The law also states that school districts must permit teachers of physical education, school health professionals, parents, students, representatives of the school food authority, school board, school administrators, and the public to participate in developing these policies. If you or someone you know may have an interest in serving on this committee and represents one of the groups listed above, please contact Monty Gilbreath, food service director, or Shawn Mostrom, kitchen manager, at (307) 436-7418.
Affordable Nutrition
All of our school campuses participate in the National School Lunch Program (NSLP). The NSLP is a federally assisted meal program that provides nutritionally balanced, low cost, or free meals to qualifying students. The food and beverages we sell or serve on our campuses meet the state and federal requirements, which are based on the USDA Dietary Guidelines. If you think your family may quality for meal benefits, please complete a Free and Reduced Meal application from our office. We accept applications throughout the school year.
We welcome your concerns, questions, and input on matters dealing with the USDA's National School Lunch Program. Feel free to contact Sarahbeth Hail, kitchen manager, at (307) 436-7418.
