Nutrition
News and Information
The Habersham County Schools nutrition program provides each student an opportunity to eat breakfast and lunch each day. The meals are affordable, nutritious, and served by school nutrition professionals who care about children. These meals contribute to a successful academic experience and encourage a lifetime of healthy eating.
Each school’s nutrition program has a manager who is involved in an on-going training program to include Training- In-Depth, which provides overall nutrition program management information, and ServSafe which focuses on sanitation and food safety.
Developing menus for all the schools requires careful planning to ensure that all food groups are represented and that vitamins and minerals are appropriately balanced. The elementary schools have the same menus, but there is flexibility to allow for favorite student menus on certain days and in the last week of school. Each school year every student will have three entree choices. There is something for every appetite.
School Nutrition Director, Cheryl Jones, and her staff focus on customer service, nutritious meals, and menu selection choices. School food service staff members want every child to learn and have a happy, rewarding school experience and their nutritious meals are a wonderful contribution to our efforts. We know from our own experience that children cannot focus on learning if they are hungry and our dedicated staff ensures that does not happen.

Pre-paid lunches also help lunch lines to move faster, allowing the students to spend more time enjoying lunch and less time waiting in line.
