Farm to School:

Oregon introduced the Farm to School Network to School Districts just a few short years ago, allowing additional funding to purchase directly from local farmers and vendors. All products must be grown and/or processed in the state of Oregon. Lincoln County has successfully partnered with many farmers, fisheries, and vendors over the years and put these items in our daily service. If you are interested in becoming a partner, please contact the Nutrition Services Department for details or visit http://www.farmtoschool.org/our-network/Oregon.

Fresh Fruit & Vegetables Program:

Many of our K-8 schools qualify for the Fresh Fruit & Vegetable program which allows for a tasting or snack of items they would not always experience, such as Dragon Fruit, Kiwi Berries, or Rainbow Carrots. Ask your child what they had for a snack today! To learn more, go to: https://www.fns.usda.gov/ffvp/fresh-fruit-and-vegetable-program.

Breakfast, the most important meal of the day!

Busy weekday mornings make it a challenge for many families to find time for a healthy breakfast. However, US Department of Agriculture data shows, that an increasing number of students are starting their day with a nutritious breakfast in their school cafeterias. The School Breakfast Program currently serves more than 14 million students every day. Studies show that students who eat school breakfast are more likely to:

• Reach higher levels of achievement in math
• Score higher on standardized tests
• Have better concentration, memory, and alertness
• Have improved attendance, behavior, and academic performance
• Maintain a healthy weight

Encourage your student to have breakfast and start the day out right!

Civil Rights

The Oregon Department of Education Child Nutrition Programs (ODE CNP) works closely with the regional USDA Office of Civil Rights and other organizations committed to equal educational opportunity and respectful environments.

ODE CNP actively promotes equity. We offer training and technical assistance to ODE CNP sponsors and providers to assist them with their responsibilities regarding discrimination and harassment. ODE CNP also conducts workshops on these and related subjects at state, regional, local program sites, and conferences. Future activities include developing outreach strategies and tactics aimed at inclusiveness and increased program participation.
