Child Nutrition

The Child Nutrition department is committed to providing healthy school meals to Simi Valley Schools students supporting their academic success, and promoting healthful eating habits that lead to lifelong positive nutrition practices. More than 10,000 student meals are served in our cafeterias each school day out of our 24 kitchens and to 27 school sites. 

We strive to exceed the meal standards recommended by the Healthy Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010. Our menus include fresh local fruits and vegetables, whole-grain rich products, fat-free and low-fat milk from a local dairy, lower levels of sodium, saturated fat and zero trans fats in our meals.

Meals are served using a discreet accounting system that protects the privacy of all students and allows parents to keep track of their child's activity in the cafeteria.
