Employees
of the Food Service Department are dedicated to providing nutritious
meals at a reasonable cost to students of Culpeper County Public
Schools. We believe that well-nourished children find the road to
success easier to travel.
All of our schools participate in
the National School Lunch Program, which mandates nutritional
requirements, including the percentage of calories from fat and amount
of saturated fats.
The Food Service Department serves about
1,068,000 meals (breakfast and lunch) annually. Believe it or not, in
one school year, Culpeper’s students consumed: 27,000 servings of green
beans, 17,300 servings of grapes and 762,592 cartons of milk.
Food
sales – both meals and ala carte items -- sustain the food service
portion of the school budget. Our cafeterias remain budget neutral in a
time when many food service departments look to the overall school
budget for financial support. Our staff continually searches for food
products that are not only wholesome but economical -- and just plain
tasty.
About 46 percent of our students receive free or
reduced-price meals. If you would like more information about this
program or want to receive an application form, please call 825-8212.

Parents
who would like to make requests or ask questions concerning their
child’s food choices may contact the cafeteria manager at the school.
Each school uses a computer system that can note food allergies and
track or block a student’s food selections.
Parents may elect to pay their child's meal account online through a special service called mySchoolBucks.com.
We realize it can be difficult to keep track of fees and payments to
the school district. To help simplify payment of school fees, Culpeper
County School Food Service Department has enrolled in an internet-based
service which allows you to pay for school lunches using your Visa,
MasterCard, Discover or American Express. Participation in this service
is voluntary; you may enroll at any time. Visit mySchoolBucks.com for more information or to enroll.
