Healthy Food for Eagle County Schools

Eagle County School District PTAs are working to improve the quality of the snacks and school lunches served in Eagle County Schools.

Recent studies show that providing children with healthy lunch and snack choices prepared without chemicals, additives, and artificial colors and flavorings improves academic performance and behavior. Unfortunately, most of the food choices available at school contain these ingredients.

Eagle County Schools are great! Let’s continue to create the best learning environment for our kids to succeed based on new knowledge about nutrition. If you would like to see Eagle County Schools to provide snacks and lunches without artificial ingredients and chemicals, please take the time to go to the comments section (and leave your name and your child's school. Feel free to leave comments, too! The comments will be used to demonstrate the support for changing our school district’s lunch and snack programs.

There is strength in numbers. Working together, we can help the district’s administration be more aware of our goals.

Don't forget--leave your name, child's school and any comments to show your support.

If you’d like to be a part of a healthy snacks and lunch committee at your child’s school, please include your e-mail address as well.

Thanks for your support! Forward a link to the Healthy Food for Eagle County Schools blog to others so we can get as many names as possible!
