Student Success Through Proper Nutrition 

We make an ongoing commitment to aid student success by not only providing well-balanced breakfast and lunch meals, but by also keeping both students and parents informed about nutrition standards and meal patterns. We want to see our students reach their highest potential and we believe that it starts with nutritious meals! 

Our Commitment

The statement: “You cannot teach a hungry child,” is out incentive to meet the nutritional needs of our students. Students are encouraged to try new foods and use the cafeteria as a learning laboratory for making nutritious choices. Balance, moderation, and variety are the keys to healthier eating. If we can instill this into our children today, we will have healthier adults in the future. 

 

Troy City Schools provides free breakfast and lunch to all enrolled students through the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP). No meal application or payment is required for school meals.

A la carte items are also available for purchase. Students may pay at school or families can add funds to their student’s account through PayPAMS.
