Nutrition Services has a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist on staff. It is important to us that all students have the nutrition they need to be fit, healthy, and ready for success. Our menus contain whole-grains, lean protein, low-fat dairy, and fresh fruits and vegetables every day.

Each school has a local wellness representative. Schools engage in wellness activities for both students and staff throughout the school year. Compliance with the Wellness Policy is based on completion of the Bartow County School District Wellness Policy Evaluation Tool. During the 2021-2022 school year, compliance with the Wellness Policy was 100% for our school district. For school year 2022-2023, compliance with the Wellness Policy was 100% for our school district.

Our District Wellness Policy can be found HERE starting with code EEE Wellness Program.
