District Home


	Welcome to Nutrition Services! Good nutrition and learning go hand in hand. The Nutrition Services department is made up of a team of food and nutrition professionals that are dedicated to students' health, well being and their ability to learn. We support learning by promoting healthy habits for lifelong nutrition and fitness practices. NEW! Parents can now make deposits to student meal accounts and apply for Meal Benefits online! Meals, foods and beverages sold or served at schools meet state and federal requirements which are based on the USDA Dietary Guidelines. We provide students with access to a variety of affordable and appealing foods that meet the health and nutrition needs of students. Did you know that we buy farm fresh produce right from our own district farm? Our Nutrition Services Department at Manteca USD, takes the notion of “Farm to School” to a whole new INNOVATIVE level. Outside of the window of the Manteca Nutrition Services Department is the school district’s farm. We buy fresh produce for our nutrition program that is farmed and harvested by the students. Farm fresh specialties include pumpkins (of course) baby bok choy, parsley, chives, carrots, cilantro, potatoes, spinach and butter, romaine, green leaf and red leaf lettuces. Beaming, Patty Page, the Director of Nutrition Services, says “We’ve harvested and served some of the sweetest watermelons you have ever tasted”.
