Nutritional Services

The vision of the Student Universal Nutrition Program within the School District of Holmen is to advance the nutritional and educational goals of the district through:

  • Helping to educate our students as to the importance of healthy eating habits.
  • Providing nutritionally balanced meals.
  • Striving to teach lifelong nutritional values to students and the community as a whole.
  • Representation of the School District in a professional way that will ensure its credibility in the community.

The School District of Holmen believes:

  • That a healthy, well-nourished child is better prepared to learn.
  • In providing meals and nutrition services for all students and staff.
  • The District may also provide services to programs outside the District when resources allow and when mutual benefits are derived.
  • All children need to receive nutritionally adequate meals and nutrition education. The District will design the School Nutrition Program to encourage participation.
  • The School Nutrition Program shall serve as a learning laboratory to the instructional program, providing nutritional information and food service technology, as related to the curriculum.
  • The District shall promote public policy which will provide adequate funding for child nutrition programs in schools.

Through the National School Lunch Program, students consume twice the servings of fruits and vegetables and greater amounts of whole grains and dairy products than students who bring their lunch from home. Recent research concluded that students who eat school lunch consume 29% fewer calories from fat and twice as many servings of fruit and vegetables when compared to students who bring a lunch from home. All of this — and we do the dishes! Compare the cost of lunch brought from home with our school lunch prices and you will see that not only is it a healthy choice, it is also a bargain!
