NOTE: Some products that are served at Touchet School District may be processed in a facility that also processes peanuts, tree nuts, wheat, soy, milk, egg, fish, and shellfish. When information is available from the manufacturer, the allergen will be noted in the nutrient information found in the online menu.

Touchet Nutrition Department wants to ensure that all students are provided with safe healthy meals:

Unfortunately, it is not possible to eliminate all allergens from our menus in the Nutrition Department.
There is always a possibility that our foods contain hidden ingredients or have come in contact with certain allergens when the foods are being packaged at the facility or transported.
Sometimes, manufacturers change ingredients without prior notice.
Together, we can create a plan to help meet your student's special dietary needs.
Please know that the safest meal for a student with food allergies is a meal packed from home!

We do our best to offer our students a variety of foods in our daily menus! Students that have food preferences, intolerances, or sensitivities may be able to select foods from our regular daily menus that meet their needs through menu variety. One example would be if a student has an intolerance to strawberries 🍓 we offer a variety of fruit and they could choose an apple 🍏 instead.

Please encourage your student to remind the nutrition staff of their allergen when they come through the line-

We will help your student choose foods that do not contain their allergen.
If a student lets us know in the meal service line that he or she is allergic to something, we will try our best to make on the spot accommodations for the student.
Nutrition staff will then follow up with the school nurse for further information and planning.

We will make reasonable modifications to meals on a case-by-case basis to accommodate disabilities which restrict a child’s diet. Modified meals will be provided at no extra charge. Accommodations will be made on a case-by case basis. Requests for specific brands will not be honored.

“Under the law, a disability is an impairment which substantially limits a major life activity, which can include allergies and digestive conditions, but does not include personal diet preferences “.

How Do I Request Meal Modifications for My Child?
