The St. Clair County Schools Child Nutrition Program participates in the National School Breakfast, & Lunch Program that operates under federal nutrition guidelines, as mandated by the National School Act of 1946 and the Child Nutrition Act of 1966 and its revision of 2010. These nutrition guidelines for schools are based on Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDA), student’s caloric needs, and the Dietary Guidelines for Americans.

School breakfast provides one fourth of an average American child’s nutritional needs and school lunch provides one third of an average American child’s nutritional needs based on their grade group. The St Clair County Child Nutrition program is delighted to offer a large variety of vegetables & fruits as well as more whole grains, and low fat and fat-free dairy products in recipes and products designed to appeal to children & teenagers.

  • No adult or student meals may be charged. A computerized program allows for advanced payment of all meals and extra sales. This practice is strongly encouraged as this will help the cashier line move faster and give students more time to enjoy meals. Students will be issued a card to use for meal purchases.

  • Cashiers are available in the lunchroom to accept payment on accounts between breakfast and lunch.

    (Note: Once you login or register to your account, you will be able to complete the payment.)

  • Please do not bring fast food (in original containers) to our school lunchrooms. This rule applies to students, visitors and employees.

  • School menus are sent home monthly with children grades K-8 and are also available on our website along with calorie and nutrition information.

  • If a student loses his/her card he/she will be given a replacement card at no charge. If the replacement card is lost, there will be a $3.00 charge placed on the student’s account for each replacement card. Children may also use their unique four or five-digit pin number at the cash register.
