Special Dietary Needs

Our Food Services Department supports access to healthy meals for all children, including children with disabilities who have special dietary needs. Federal law and USDA regulation require nutrition programs to make reasonable modifications to accommodate children with disabilities, which can include allergies and digestive conditions, but does not include personal diet preferences.

Requesting Special Meal Accommodations

You  may request special meal accommodations if:

  • Your child plans to eat school meals, AND
  • Your child has a medical dietary need that would require us to modify our menu*

*Menu note: Vegetarian accommodations are available each day. 

To request special meal accommodations, complete the "Request for Special Dietary Accommodations" form below. This form must be signed by a state-recognized medical provider. Please return the completed form to your school nurse.

Please contact our Food Services Department with questions about special meal accommodations at (360) 804-2599.

 Allergen Information

  • Our online menu can be filtered to identify allergens. In addition, allergens can be viewed along with nutritional information for each food item by selecting the specific item. 
  • Allergen information is taken directly from manufacturer’s labels and databases and is subject to change without notice. Monroe School District does not guarantee the information and provides it solely for your convenience. The Food Services Department does everything we can to accommodate special dietary needs, however, the safest meals are those brought from home.
