Child Nutrition Program
The Child Nutrition Program provides technical assistance, training and resources to districts in order to promote effective management of the National School Lunch, Breakfast, and After School Snack Programs. This is in accordance with United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and Texas Department of Agriculture (TDA) regulations. We seek to provide school districts and charter schools with the information they need to operate cost effective programs that meet the state and federal regulations while meeting the needs of their customers.
