Our Child Nutrition Programs serve more than
3,000 breakfasts and 6,000 lunches each day to students of the
Auburn School District. Menus are planned to meet the
nutritional goals of the USDA and the Dietary Guidelines for
Americans. Each school has their own kitchen and staff who
prepare meals at the site. The cafeteria at each school is
treated as a classroom of learning about food and nutrition.
Our website:
www.auburn.wednet.edu/childnutrition/default3.htm is an
excellent resource to learn about our program(s) and nutrition.
We encourage you to contact us with questions and suggestions via
e-mail at:
ChildNutrition@auburn.wednet.edu.

Breakfasts and
lunches may be pre-purchased in any amount. Computers are
used in our schools to maintain balances for individual student
accounts--we encourage you to pre-pay into the account
(this ensures money for meals and faster moving lines of service).
Checks must be made out for the exact amount and are given to the
kitchen--please include each student's PIN number, the student's
name, and, it is helpful to have the grade and/or teacher's name on
the check. For your convenience (and a small fee),
pre-payments can be made over the Internet at
www.mymealtime.com.
Free and Reduced Breakfasts and
Lunches:
The Auburn School District participates in the USDA National School
Breakfast and Lunch Programs. We maintain confidentiality in
the classroom and in the lunchroom. All students (Free,
Reduced, or Full Price) use a PIN number to access their account.
Free or reduced price applications are available at every school
office and school kitchen. A new application must be completed
each year. Free and reduced price breakfast and lunch
application forms are sent home the first day of school and are
given to parents of new students upon enrollment. Foster
children may also be eligible for these benefits. You
may apply or re-apply at any time during the year. You
may download an application form from our website:
www.auburn.wednet.edu. PLEASE list the entire
family (and all students) on one family application. Auburn High
School, Auburn Riverside High School, and Auburn Mountainview High
School also participate in the USDA
School Breakfast and Lunch Programs. Free and reduced-price
meals are available to eligible families. Applications are
available at the school and in the cafeteria. Each high school
has a professional chef who is also a certified teacher.
As instructors, these chefs teach culinary arts to students who are
interested in preparing for a career in the food service industry or
that are interested in learning more about food and nutrition. Further nutritional
