OUR PROGRAM

Local

At the Hampton School District, we work with your children to choose healthy options by serving a variety of fresh fruits and vegetables. We also understand the importance of purchasing local products and are proud to 
be a part of the "FARM TO SCHOOL" program.

Local

Fresh

Whenever possible we infuse our salad bar with produce purchased locally. Every day your child has access to a salad bar that features lettuce, tomato, broccoli, cucumbers, cheese, peppers, onions, carrots, sliced eggs, croutons (made fresh every week), and fresh and canned fruit. The salad bar features three salad dressings.

Changes

Over the past few years, we have integrated whole wheat products into the program. Whole wheat bread has used for all sandwiches, hamburgers, and hot dog buns.  Our pizza products feature whole wheat crust and low-fat or fat-free cheese. We are currently using whole-wheat pasta. Our most recent addition of whole wheat is our waffles and pancakes. Also, when we serve chicken (nuggets, patties, and tenders) they are battered with whole grain or soy batter.  A healthier alternative to peanut butter. is sun butter. We have found that children are more accepting of change if it is done gradually.

LUNCH PRICE FOR STUDENTS - $3.50 for school year 2024/2025
