Vision
Nutrition Services will actively contribute to children’s well being by providing and promoting good nutritional choices and physical activity and by advocating for the life-long adoption of a healthy lifestyle. Through education, children will be taught the importance of adopting and maintaining a healthy lifestyle and how it positively influences their cognitive development, self-esteem, and social and physical growth, both now and in adulthood.
