With District and Health Department approval, beginning April 14th, 2021, JSD Nutrition Services will transition from our current meal service as follows:
- Discontinue the use of hinged Styrofoam containers (except curbside/door-side meal service and ‘grab and go’ meals offered to virtual learners and students who are not able to eat in the school cafeteria.)
- School cafeterias will return to a pre-COVID meal service utilizing serving lines.
- Meals will return to an offer vs serve format, where students may choose or refuse some menu choices. Menu items that students choose/pick up themselves must be wrapped or in a portion cup with a lid.
- Nutrition Workers will monitor students in serving areas, so students touch only the item(s) they are choosing.
- Manual meal counting will continue for the remainder of the 2020-21 school year (No registers will be in use.)
- Elementary schools will return to serving lunches on washable trays.
- Secondary schools will return to serving meals on disposable plates, boats etc.
- Cafeterias will maintain current district social distancing guidelines.
