Dear Shaler Area School District families,

It’s a new beginning, a fresh, bright year. We’re more excited than ever to welcome your children back! We’ve been refining and improving their favorites foods they’ve come to love, and also creating delicious, exciting new chef-inspired meals that we can’t wait to share with everyone.

• SAVE MONEY Groceries at home can add up, our buying power means we get quality food at cost effective pricing.
• SAVE TIME No more morning rush to pack lunch!
• VARIETY No more guessing what your child will be hungry for at lunch. Kids can choose from multiple options on the serving line every day.
• BALANCED NUTRITION School meals are nutritious and are based on USDA guidelines.

Want to simplify the school year even more? Paying ahead can be an easy, low stress way to ensure ready access for your children to always have a healthy meal at school. If you qualify for low- or no-cost school lunches, then this can be an important way to meet your weekly household food budget.

We’re ready for the best year yet! Together, we can ensure your children have nutritious meals at school for their optimal health and well-being. Our simple mission continues to shine through every aspect of our business: Caring for People. Serving Great Food.
Please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns.
