NUTRITION AT THE CAEDMON SCHOOL
Our daily meals for growing bodies focus on optimal nutritional impact. Offerings consist of a wide variety of protein sources (both animal and plant based), whole grains, legumes, dairy, healthy fats, and the freshest fruits and vegetables. Menus are designed to reflect seasonal availability, holidays, and the special dietary needs of The Caedmon School community.

Are built upon a rotation for variety and interest
Meal Innovations
Monitoring food trends helps us enhance our lunch offerings. We always find creative ways to infuse our meals with the latest in culinary trends from grain bowls to specialty salads to pressed paninis and bold burritos. For The Caedmon School menu, we have considered menu items that reflect: current food trends, community needs, and transportation factors to hold well and maintain temperature through transit.
Our goal is to provide options for everyone and take each student’s requirements into account. Vegetarian and vegan options are always available, as are other dietary preferences.
