Food & Nutrition

Yes, substitutions and accommodations are available for students with special dietary needs. To request these, please submit a "Request for Special Dietary Accommodations" form or a medical statement to the Food Service office.

The form or statement must include:

• Food(s) to be avoided or omitted from the child's diet
• How consuming the food affects the child
• Food(s) to be used as substitutes

A physician or recognized medical authority must sign the "Request for Special Dietary Accommodations" form or medical statement. No menu changes can be made without either of these documents on file. Substitutions for personal diet preferences are not allowed; however, students can choose from other available options on that day.

To request a substitution or accommodation, contact the Food Service office to arrange a meeting to discuss your student's needs. Special dietary accommodations will be approved on a case-by-case basis.

Parents can track their student's purchase activity through Skyward Family Access. Click on the Food Service tab on the left side of the screen to view and print a Customer Meal Statement. Alternatively, you may reach out to the food service staff at your school or the Food Service Office, and they will be happy to generate a report detailing your child's meal purchase activity. This report can be sent via mail, email, or brought home by your child.

At North Kitsap School District, we prioritize the safety of our students, especially those with life-threatening food allergies, such as reactions to peanuts, tree nuts, and dairy. Given the vast number of students we cater to and the various food sources we rely on, we can't guarantee the complete absence of all allergens. Please note that labeling such products is a manufacturer's voluntary choice. For students with genuine dietary disabilities, not mere preferences, we ask parents to fill out the "Request for Special Dietary Accommodations" form available on our website to ensure appropriate dietary care.

To request a refund, please get in touch with the Food Service office at (360) 396-3279. Refunds will be provided, but allow 6-8 weeks for the check to be mailed to your address.
