Change in food Students can expect a few changes in the schools' cafeterias as well. The changes are a result of a Texas Department of Agriculture policy, however, the policy does not affect students who pack their lunch. Food portion sizes are decreasing. The biggest change students will notice is in the amount of French fries and the frequency they are served. At the elementary level, the serving size will not exceed 3 ounces, and French fries will only be served once a week. At the middle school level, the serving size will not exceed 3 ounces and students will only be able to buy French fries three times a week. At the high school level, French fries will be served everyday. However, students will only be allowed one 3-ounce serving at a time.
The candyman can't The amount of candy is also being limited. In the elementary schools, no candy will be allowed during the school day. In the middle schools, candy is not allowed until after lunch. And, in the high schools some candy in smaller portions will be allowed during the day. For more information on the new policy parents and students may visit www.squaremeals.org or call the district's Child Nutrition department at (830) 221-2067 or (830) 885-1791. | ||||||||||||||||
