Disabilities
We modify meals for 澳洲幸运10 with disabilities who are unable to consume meals offered to 澳洲幸运10 who are not disabled. Completing and returning the completed Meal Modification form to the PSD Child Nutrition Office or your student's health office, is an important step for the development of safe meal modifications for your child. Determinations on if a student has a disability that restricts his or her diet are to be made by a licensed physician. Adjusted meals cost the same as regular meals. The school, school nurse, family, student, and physician will work together to best meet the student's needs. For questions, please contact PSD Nutrition Coordinator Becky Wiggins, rwiggins@19931993.com.
