Food and Nutrition Services Wellness
The Cobb County School District Food and Nutrition Services Department employs Registered Dietitians who are committed to supporting student health, wellness, and academic success through nutrition education and access to nutritious meals. Like you, we want all students to have access to the nutrition they need to grow, learn, and succeed.
We are proud of the progress we have made in enhancing the nutritional quality of our school meals. Consistent with the recommendations from the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, students have access to whole grains, low-fat dairy products, and a variety of fresh fruits and vegetables every school day. Additionally, all food offerings served through Food and Nutrition Services are trans-fat free.
In addition to serving nutritious meals, Food and Nutrition Services support nutrition education efforts that encourage lifelong healthy eating habits and healthy lifestyle choices.
Annual cafeteria promotions include:
National Fruits and Vegetables Month (September)
National School Lunch Week (October)
National Farm to School Month (October)
