Time to get out the vote! When children have a voice in school nutrition, they are prepared to make the healthy choices that will govern their future success. This election year, students will declare victory for good nutrition during National School Lunch Week. 

Lamar CISD parents will help students celebrate National School Lunch Week by voting on their favorite school lunch candidate.

Lamar CISD students are “Taking a Parent to Lunch” this Wednesday, Oct. 12. 

The Vote for a Winning Lunch is presented by the Texas Department of Agriculture. The Lamar CISD Food Service Department is offering Texas products all this month. 

Last year, the Food Service Department received the Perfect Peach Award for its efforts to use Texas-grown products in Lamar CISD Cafeterias.

Food Services’ is also holding three contests between schools to encourage some friendly competition. Campus kitchens will be competing in food art, serving line decorations and increased meal participation.
