We would like to take a moment to inform Garfield families of some positive changes made to our school lunch program! In partnership with Freshwater School, local Humboldt Grass-Fed Beef, locally grown veggies, organic flour, and organic sugar are now being served every day at Garfield School. Products that included hydrogenated oils and corn syrup have been removed from the menu, as well. In addition, all student lunches are being made with whole ingredients, “by scratch” in the Freshwater School kitchen.
Garfield offers both a School Breakfast and a School Lunch Program. These are sponsored by the National School Lunch Program and the State of California Universal Meals Program. This year all students may order meals at no cost to their families. Please be sure to fill out the forms included in your back-to-school packet pertaining to these meal programs.
Each month a lunch and breakfast menu will be provided to families, which can be found on our website HERE. The menu will be posted at the school as well and you may also request a paper copy or have the menu emailed to you from our office. In addition to the daily menu, a vegetarian option is offered as an alternative. Milk is included with the lunch. Students must order same day lunches and the following day’s breakfast daily.
