NUTRI-SERVE FOOD MANAGEMENT, INC.
Dear Parents/Guardians:

Welcome Back to School!

Nutri-Serve is excited to start another year at Northern Burlington and to see your smiling faces, but first, we have a few important updates for the 2022-2023 school year.

There have been many changes over the past few years, and although things continue to remain fluid, we are hopeful that this school year will help usher us into the new normal.

Here are some highlights of NB’s Food Service Plan:

Are school meals still free for everyone?
The federal waiver allowing free meals for all students due to the coronavirus pandemic expired on June 30, 2022. We encourage all parents and guardians to complete a new 2022-2023 Application for Free and Reduced Price School Meals prior to the first day of school.

2022-2023 Meal Pricing

Lunch
Regular: $2.90
Premium: $3.15
Reduced: $0.40
Premium Meals
Deli Sandwiches Made to Order
Salads Made to Order (HS Only)
Burrito Bar (HS Only)

For your convenience, online prepayments are possible using the site www.schoolpaymentportal.com with your child’s student ID. Cash or a check can also be applied to your child’s account by any cashier.

Why choose school meals?
School meals provide nutritious foods including fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, milk, and whole grains. Consistent exposure to a wide variety of foods not only encourages students to try something new, but also helps build lifelong healthy habits and a positive relationship with food. School meals are also a great value. Each lunch meal comes with a PROTEIN, GRAIN, FRUIT, VEGETABLE, & MILK.

Students must take at least 1 serving of fruit or vegetable, but can select up to 2 servings.
*a la carte & snack options also available*

*As of January 1st the snack prices have increased as follows:*

Chips $1.25
Cookies $1.25
Rice Krispie Treats  $1.25
Muffins $2.00
Soft pretzel $1.25
Yogurt Parfait $2.75
Arizona tea $2.00
Sparkling Ice $2.50

Where can I find the menus?
Monthly menus are posted online through Nutrislice. You can find them at: https://nburlington.nutrislice.com. There is also an app for iPhone and Android (search “Nutrislice” in the app store) if you prefer accessing the menus on mobile. While we try our best to follow the posted menu, ongoing supply chain issues necessitate substitutions at times. Please contact us if you have questions or concerns about menu changes or product substitutions.

We appreciate your patience, understanding, and flexibility as we work to provide nutritious school meals in this challenging and changing environment. We will continue to follow all food safety protocol and are dedicated to ensure a safe environment for our students.


Sincerely,

Richard Kaz
