Welcome to St. Pius X School Nutrition Services! Our goal is to make available delicious and nutritionally balanced meals to all students therefore promoting and enhancing student learning. Our nutrition program is a part of the National School Lunch Program (NSLP) and is regulated and supported by federal and state guidelines. These guidelines assist in allowing nutrition programs to offer nutritionally dense foods at reasonable prices. Throughout this webpage, you will find informational resources to help guide your family through our program.

We are very excited to be a part of the Team Nutrition network of schools! This partnership expands St. Pius X School’s health and wellness goals as well as providing our lunch program with additional fun resources to engage students and help them learn about nutrition and lifelong healthy habits.

Applications and information will be sent twice annually to families to help us best serve family’s individual needs. Any family with an active application on file will not need to resubmit their information. Families who qualified via application for free/reduced last year will have 30 days into the new school year to submit a new application. Please call or email with any questions.

We are very appreciative of families staying ahead of their lunch account balances. If extenuating circumstances exist that might make paying the lunch account balance challenging, please feel free to contact us. We ask that negative balances do not become habitual. Thank you for helping us keep negative balances manageable.

Negative Balance Policy

We pride ourselves on working one-on-one with families with special dietary needs. Alternative menus and substitutions are made available for problematic foods.
