What are the benefits of participating in the

National School Lunch Program?

For children, the National School Lunch Program provides a nutritious meal that contains one-third of the recommended dietary allowance of necessary nutrients.

For parents, the program offers a convenient method of providing a nutritionally balanced lunch at the lowest possible price.

For schools, the program enhances children's learning abilities by contributing to their physical and mental well being. Studies have shown that children whose nutritional needs are met have fewer attendance and discipline problems and are more attentive in class.
