School Snacks
Sherwood Forest won a grant from the Dept. of Agriculture called
"the Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program". This program will provide a wonderful variety of fresh fruit and vegetable snacks for students during the school day, throughout this school year. The snacks are comletely fre of charge. As a result, teachersw discourage students from bringing other snacks from home as the focus will be on developing healthy and nutritious eating habits. We had this grant program 2 years ago and it was an unbelievable succes. Parents who predicted their students wouldn't eat fresh fruit and vegetables were amazed! The packet of information you will receive on the first day of school will include a brochure on the school's snack policy and guidlines of foods allowed for snacks or in the lunchroom, based on School Board Policy.
