Model Meals. Many schools have revamped their menus to include not only nutritious foods, but also ones that have won the approval of students and teachers alike. Schools take many different approaches to creating a meal line-up, and varying considerations—such as the location and number of available preparation staff, budgets, religious beliefs and special dietary needs—can affect what works best for each individual school. Below, find a selection of sample menus from a cross-section of schools that MyHealthySchool recognizes as doing an outstanding job with feeding their students. Hopefully these menus (including snack, breakfast and lunch) will inspire your school.
