Starting January 6th, students in grades 3-5 will have the option of drinking milk OR water. Teachers will advise students of this before lunch on Monday. Also, students will still need to have choices from at least 3 of the food groups. Water is NOT in a food group.
Dining hall will have two orange coolers filled with water on carts and they will be wheeled and placed in the center aisles (with cups) so that students do not need to go all the way to the front of the dining hall once they put their tray down. If they want milk, they can get it from milk dispensers.
As a kula, we try to encourage our students to make healthy choices at lunch and breakfast. We are very fortunate to have a variety of healthy food selections available on a daily basis.
