Welcome to the School District of Poynette School Nutrition program. The subcategories listed on the left side of our website will direct you to more information about our programming and pricing. Monitor this website often during the school year for updates. For questions and more information about our school nutrition program, please contact our School Nutrition Services Director, listed below.
The District has a very comprehensive Wellness Policy, which is located in the menu link to the left, under Wellness Policy. Part of this policy involves completing a WellSAT scorecard and a Local wellness policy triennial assessment report card. They rate the strength of the policy, to ensure all areas of the wellness initiative is covered. It can be viewed below. Interested parties who may be interested in joining the District's Wellness Committee can reach out to our District Administrator for additional information.
Every student in grades K-12 will be offered one FREE daily breakfast for the entire 24/25 school year.

USDA works closely with states to ensure that children who receive free or reduced-price school meals can get the nutrition they need when schools are closed – whether during summer break or unexpected closures during the school year. Through USDA's summer meal programs, approved sites in communities across the country can serve meals to kids up to age 18 at no cost. Families can use this tool to find directions to nearby meal sites, as well as their hours of operation and contact information.
The Summer Meals Site Finder has officially closed for the season now that schools are back in session. Check back in early May 2024 when the Site Finder will go live again for the 2024 summer period.
Families seeking food assistance for their children can also contact The USDA National Hunger Hotline, operated by Hunger Free America. The hotline can be reached Monday through Friday between 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. ET. at 1-866-3-HUNGRY (1-866-348-6479) (for English) or 1-877-8-HAMBRE (1-877-842-6273) (for Spanish).
