To recognize the National School Lunch Program, serving nearly 30 million children each day, Treynor CSD schools will celebrate National School Lunch Week from October 14-18, 2024. The fun and creative campaign theme, “School Lunch Pirates: Find Your Treasure,” highlights the importance of a healthy school lunch to a student’s success both in and out of the classroom.

Research shows children are getting their healthiest meals at school. National School Lunch Week will highlight the nutritious foods available daily at Treynor CSD schools.

“School lunches offer students fruits and vegetables, whole grains and milk, and meet federal nutrition standards limiting fat, calories and sodium,” said Mandy Vincent, Director of Nutrition. “National School Lunch Week helps us educate parents and students about all the wonderful benefits of our lunch program.”

The federally funded National School Lunch Program (NSLP) has been fueling students for success for 77 years. Students can enjoy the convenience of a healthy school lunch for just $2.60 at the elementary and $2.75 at the middle/high school. Some students may qualify for free or reduced-price meals. Contact the Supt. Office to learn more 712-487-3414 X4.

The “School Lunch Pirates: Find Your Treasure” campaign is made possible by the nonprofit School Nutrition Association. Parents and students can follow the fun on social media using the hashtags #NSLW24, #SchoolLunchPirates and #SchoolLunch.
