Special Diets

NEISD strives to serve a variety of foods from all the food groups, including colorful fruits and vegetables, whole-grain-rich offerings, and in-house prepared items. We serve locally sourced foods, when possible! For allergen and nutrition information, please visit SchoolCafe. Also available as a phone app! For additional questions, email our Dietitian/Wellness Coordinator.

Our staff has access to educational resources and staff that are trained in nutrition, food labeling, and food production. The School Nutrition Services' role is to communicate with the school staff, cafeteria staff, and parents about what allergens exist on the school menus and diet modifications for specific documented needs.

Enrollment is easy!

Meal Modifications

You must submit a request to the District every school year if your child requires a special diet.  Your physician's office must complete the form. Turn the form in to your School Nurse. Please allow up to two weeks for processing special diet requests.
