School District of Lancaster

Each day, our Food and Child Nutrition Services team plays an essential role in ensuring that every student in the School District of Lancaster is nourished, supported, and ready to learn. During National School Lunch Week, we celebrate the incredible people who make that possible.

SDoL serves approximately 1.1 million lunches and 500,000 breakfasts every year, each one prepared with care and guided by the USDA’s strict nutritional standards. Our menus are crafted to promote health, balance, and variety, offering students a fresh fruit or vegetable every day, often sourced from local farms and producers whenever possible.

Behind these meals is one of the largest departments in our district. A dedicated team of nearly 60 staff members takes pride in fueling the minds and bodies of our students. Many of them have served for decades, forming lasting relationships with generations of families.

This week and every week, we thank our Food Service team for their tireless work and for nourishing our students, one meal at a time. ... See MoreSee Less
