school lunch hero day

Our lunch heroes are highly trained, experienced staff serving an average of 5,000 meals daily from nine kitchens.

Undergoing yearly continuing education training empowers them to effectively operate the National School Lunch and School Breakfast Program, as well as the Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program and the Afterschool Snack Program at various locations. Feeding students requires adaptability; our staff is prepared to handle unexpected substitutions, sudden changes in the school day, staffing shortages, or equipment issues on the fly.

A heartfelt thank you to our Nutrition Services staff for the invaluable difference they make to Kelso students, one meal at a time!
