Gilchrist County School Food Service provides nutritious meals to all students and staff in a safe, sanitary environment. The school food service program includes the federally reimbursed lunch and breakfast programs, ala carte food, beverage offerings, and sale of food and beverage items offered through vending machines.

The School Meal Program is an integral part of the total Education Program and is governed by the same principles and type of control as any other division of the school:

Florida State Board of Education Administration
Florida Adm. Code (FAC) Rules, 6A-7.040 to 6A-7.045

Gilchrist County District School Board Administrative Rules,
8.23 to 8.24

Foods and beverages available in schools are only those which meet the nutritional needs of students and contribute to the development of desirable health habits unless provided otherwise in School Board rules.

Students may elect to choose at least three of the five food items offered at lunch and three of the four food items offered at breakfast, which are sold at the unit price.

All schools participate in the National School Lunch Program and serve student lunches according to meal patterns established by the United States Department of Agriculture. All schools participate in the National School Breakfast Program and serve student breakfasts according to meal patterns established by the USDA.

Free or reduced price meals are served to all students who qualify based on eligibility criteria. The Income Eligibility Guidelines for free or reduced price meals are in accordance with the scales provided by the Florida Department of Education as adopted by the State Board of Education based upon income guidelines prescribed by the United States Secretary of Agriculture.
