School Nutrition/Food Program:
At Northumberland CIS, we believe food is an important foundation in being ready to learn.听
Food is not only essential for us to learn, it brings us together as a community of learners.
At our school, we attempt to provide food in the following ways:
- Snack cart available throughout the school day
- Most Wednesdays include a free 鈥渉ot lunch鈥� for students, staff and community partners
At our school, we recognize that good nutrition is foundational to being ready to learn. By supporting access to food and nutrition through various programs, we empower students to focus, engage, and thrive鈥攚hether they鈥檙e returning to education or forging a new path forward.
