The Child Nutrition Department is proud to be part of the District’s team. Our main goal is to support our educators in their efforts to improve student achievement. It is a proven fact that hungry minds cannot learn and cannot teach!

Tyler County School District participates in the National School Lunch and Breakfast Programs funded by USDA. Through the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act, USDA is making the first major changes in school meals in 15 years, which should help to raise a healthier generation of children.

School meals are important! They help provide your kids with a healthy well-balanced meal during school time. Students are offered a choice from all five food groups. In addition, lunch includes the right balance of fruits and vegetables (dark green, orange, legumes) helping to introduce students to a wide range of choices.

The new regulations have helped the food industry to make healthier food items available to students. Our food brokers have re-formulated all the favorite food choices to meet regulations by providing low fat, low sodium, zero trans-fat and whole grain foods.

The School Day Just Got Healthier. Together we can help our kids learn healthy habits that last forever.
