Nutrition

The School Nutrition Department is comprised of a team of food service professionals that are dedicated to the health and well-being of students.  Our program is designed to support learning by providing nutritious meals daily in each of our eight schools.  All foods served or sold at our schools meet strict state and federal nutrition requirements which are based on the USDA Dietary Guidelines. 
 
McNairy County Schools implements the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) through USDA.   This provision allows ALL students to receive one breakfast and one lunch per day at NO COST (regardless of household economic status).  All cafeterias have a variety of healthy snack items available daily that may be purchased by students.  Additional student meals, as well as adult and guest meals, will be charged at the regular price.
 
We are pleased to offer breakfast in the classroom and/or grab & go breakfast at all schools.  This program allows students to start the day by eating a healthy breakfast together. 
 
Thank you for the privilege of serving your children!
