Royalton Public Schools will provide special dietary requests for students with food allergies and/or other dietary restrictions. 

In accordance with federsal USDA regulations, the Special Diet Statement must be complted and signed by the parent/guardian as well as the student’s physician, physician assistant, registered dietician, or advanced preactice registed nurse, such as certified nurse practitioner.

This must be completed before any accommodations are able to be made.

Forms should be completed and returned to the school nurse, and the school nurse will forward to the Food Service Manager.

Special Diet Statement Form

Royalton Public School participates int he National School Lunch Program (NSLP).

Each meal consists of:

• 1-2 ounces of meat/meat alternative
• 2+ servings of fruits & vegetables
• 1 serving of grain/bread
• 8 ounces of milk

Serving sizes are those recommended in the USDA Food Guide Pyramid and the Healthy Hunger Free Kids Act.

The “offer vs. serve” Federal regulation requires students to be offered (rather than served) the food items comprising the full lunch meal.

Students choose three, four, or five food items based in their preferences instead of having to take some of each food.

Federal regulations require meals be priced as a complete unit and students must pay the full price even if they did not choose the complete emal.

Students are encouraged to take all of the food items offered because it provides a balanced meal for the best price.

Fruits & Vegetables:

Research has shown the importance of fruit and vegetables in the diet. We continue to offer a wide variety of fruit and vegatables and fresh produce is ourchased from a local vegetable farm when available.

The school lunch program is required to offer milk as one of the components of the lunch. A choice of 1% and chocolate is offered.
