WUS FOOD SERVICES

Breakfast and lunch continue to be FREE this year to all Wayland Union School students. Did you also know that this benefit includes sack lunches that students can take on field trips?

If your student's class is planning to take a field trip in 2024, watch for a SACK LUNCH REQUEST FORM to be sent home by your student's teacher. Request forms need to be completed and returned to the school by the requested date so that the Cafeteria Staff have ample time for ordering supplies and preparing the meals.

School-prepared sack lunches are an easy and nutritious way for students to have the food they need while exploring and learning on those exciting field trips!

Sack Lunches include a sandwich, fruit, vegetable, and drink.

High School students will be given the opportunity to sample dishes from China during the month of January!

"With Global Eats, we're using the power of food to connect kids with different ethnic heritages and flavors, make their relationship with food more purposeful, and take the cafeteria experience to the next level" says Chef Jet Tila.

A few of the January menu options include Orange Chicken, Chicken & Dumplings, Sweet & Sour Chicken, and Fried Rice.

All Global Eats lunch options are available to High School students on Tuesdays throughout the month of January! All Global Eats lunch choices are included as part of the FREE meals to ALL students, so please encourage your student to try something NEW!

The 'Butter Chicken' was a fan-FAVORITE in December with High School students during the Global Eats, "Taste of India!"

Click on the BIG APPLE icon to access menus through Nutrislice! Nutrislice houses all the menus for each school building throughout the district. The Nutrislice icon can also be found on the WUS Food Service Department website.

DID YOU KNOW?

Parents can filter out allergens for children with food allergies or sensitivities, find carb counts, and even print the menu when using the Nutrislice menu tools. These extra options can be found in the upper right hand corner of the screen when viewing your child's school menu through Nutrislice!

Please note that our staff may need to adjust menus when items become unavailable due to supply chain issues. We ask that parents and students remain flexible and patient with unexpected menu changes and substitutions.
