Federal law and USDA regulation requires nutrition programs to make reasonable modifications to accommodate children with disabilities, which can include allergies and digestive conditions, but does not include personal diet preferences.

You will need to request special meal accommodations IF your child plans to eat school meals AND your child has a medically prescribed dietary need that would require us to modify our menu.

To request special meal accommodations, complete the “Request for Special Dietary Accommodations” form. This form MUST be signed by a state-recognized medical provider. Please return the completed form to the Food Service Department or your child’s school nurse. For more information you may wish to view the additional guidelines about special meal accommodations.
