Parents, you have been bombarded with nutritional labels and with media reports of what you need to eat. Your life is hectic, and meals are often on the run. Roanoke City School's Child Nutrition Program strives to keep meals well balanced and nutrient packed so parents can feel less stress if dinner is a fast food choice. In addition, the Surgeon General of the United States has issued a call to action to prevent and decrease obesity in our school age children. Many changes that have been implemented in our schools and in our Child Nutrition Program have been to support this effort. Please feel free to browse our links for Nutrition on the Web. These sites will provide guidelines that mandate how our Child Nutrition Program is managed, but also changes to snacks, school fundraiser sales and cola sales.
