WSSD/The Nutrition Group operates according to the USDA School Breakfast Program. With this, a breakfast meal still includes an entrée with a side of fruit, fruit juice, or milk.

To purchase a lunch at the meal price, students must choose at least a fruit or a vegetable plus two other food groups. Otherwise, students will be charged for their items at the a la carte price.
How do students pay for meals?
At the cafeteria register, students will enter their PIN to populate their accounts. If they have funds already in their account, the price of their meal will be withdrawn. If they do not have funds, they can pay for their meal with cash or a check.
Funds can either be deposited into students' accounts through My School Bucks (https://www.myschoolbucks.com/) or in person via cash or check.
Menus can be accessed through the District website under the Food Services Department or by visiting Nutrislice directly through the app or at https://wssd.nutrislice.com/.
As always, our goal is to provide high-quality, nutritious, healthy, and well-balanced meals to all students. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions, concerns, or feedback.
