Welcome to Walpole School Nutrition!

The Walpole School Nutrition Program offers healthy meals every school day. All meals are planned by a Registered Dietitian with a focus on whole grains, fruits, vegetables and foods that are low in fat. Planned menus reflect the Nutrition Standards required by the USDA and Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education. 

We provide students with access to a variety of affordable and appealing foods that meet the health and nutrition needs of students. We support learning by promoting healthy habits for lifelong nutrition and fitness practices. We believe good nutrition and learning go hand in hand.

Walpole Public Schools in collaboration with the Walpole Food Pantry is exploring offering a BackPack Program during the 2019-2020 school year at Walpole Schools. The BackPack Program is designed to provide food to children that would benefit from supplemental nourishment over the weekend. The food is discreetly packed in the students’ backpacks each Friday afternoon (or at the last day of the school week), ensuring that students are better prepared to learn the following week. There is no cost associated to participate in this program. If you are interested in participating in the BackPack Program, please fill out the form found on the "Meal Applications" webpage listed with the other pdfs.
