Breakfast and Lunch and Snack

School Nutrition Program

We are pleased to provide a nutritious and satisfying breakfast and lunch program in collaboration with Chefables, our vended meal provider. We offer students a variety of entrees, fruits, vegetables, and drinks that comply with state and federal nutrition standards and seek to meet the high quality standards of our parents and students. 

Please visit BRSSD's meals page for more information

Please do NOT have lunch delivered by food delivery service (i.e. Door Dash, Uber Eats, restaurants that deliver, etc). If you need to bring a lunch to your student, please leave it in the office. Your student will be able to get it at lunch time.

Free or Reduced Price Lunch

Apply for free or reduced price lunch at BRSSD's meals page 

The approval process takes approximately 2 weeks.  

Snack

ALL students should bring a snack to eat mid-morning and a lunch to eat midday. (Lunch is not needed for TK students)

We strongly encourage families to send labeled and reusable food containers to school. We also encourage students to stay hydrated by keeping a reusable, labeled water bottle at school.

Food Guidelines

Since many students have allergies to common food ingredients, we do not allow students to share or trade food.

We encourage healthy foods and use the policies below, aligned to our district healthy school guidelines, viewed to the right.

1) No candy, soda or juice at school. Teachers, students, and families are asked to keep soda, sugary drinks, and candy at home and not serve or distribute them at school.

2) Limit sweet treats to once a month. We encourage educationally-appropriate celebrations of all kinds. If they include food, we would like these events to feature healthy food choices. Therefore, a maximum of only one item at one celebration a month may be in a desert/sugary category. We encourage families and teachers to consider healthy alternatives such as fresh fruit. Please do not bring foods that include trans fats.

3) If a child has a serious allergy to a food, the teacher will inform the classroom families that the allergen food should not be brought to school at any time. Children with potentially life-threatening allergies cannot be endangered by or excluded from classroom activities or lunch time activities.

Instead of food to celebrate your child’s special day, please consider non-food items such as a personalized gift to the classroom or school in the student’s name.
