Students in FISD are served by a nationally distinguished, "District of Excellence" Child Nutrition Program as designated by the School Nutrition Association, formerly ASFSA. The district of excellence recognition ensures that nutrition education, administration, communication, operations, and marketing of FISD's program meet their goals to serve healthy, delicious foods. FISD meals are analyzed for nutritional content and meet the RDA for each age/grade group. Student and parent input are utilized for menu adjustments annually. Healthy snack choices are provided and nutrition education classes are a part of the curriculum as the Child Nutrition Department works with educators to help students learn about nutrition and exercise as part of a life-long lifestyle. The FISD Child Nutrition Department is self-supported by the meals and items sold in campus cafeterias. An average of 29,265 meals and meal equivalents are served daily.
