Nutrition Services

At Cheney Public Schools, we believe in educating the whole child, mind and body. That's why we fuel our students with scratch-made, healthy breakfast and lunch consisting of fresh fruits and vegetables, lean meats, low-fat milk and cheese, and whole grains. No processed food. No high-sugar beverages. Our students enjoy the freshest, most nutritious food available using recipes that bring to life that not only is healthy food good for you, it's just plain tasty, too.

Why do we do things the way we do? The answer is simple. It's the right thing to do. Childhood obesity is a growing epidemic with one in three kids today either overweight or obese. Studies show that kids consume 50% of their daily calories during school hours, and experts have proven that the better we eat, the better we learn. That's something we can definitely sink our teeth into.
