The Diocese of Shreveport Child Nutrition Program serves students quality meals in a Christian environment. We do this by ensuring that our meals are healthy, correctly prepared, and attractively served in pleasant surroundings. (Mission Statement)

The National School Lunch Program operates in each school to offer students nutritious, enjoyable, high-quality meals at a reasonable price.

  • A complete lunch menu of Offer vs. Serve items is available daily. At a minimum, this includes an entree with a grain, a fruit choice, a vegetable choice, and milk.

  • Meals are planned based on USDA nutrient standards to provide student customers with 1/3 of the RDA for the essential nutrients, less than 30% fat, and less than 10% saturated fat.

  • All cafeterias have an automated system for advance payment of meals and extra food sales. Go to MySchoolBucks to register your child for a fee account. You must use your child’s name and date of birth one the account. Additional household children may be added and linked for easy lunch money management. The MySchoolBucks service is available 24/7, throughout the school year.

  • Individual menu items, juices, ice creams, and chips are available to be purchased daily. These items may be purchased with cash or by using money in your child’s MySchoolBucks account.

  • Menus are available below on this website, on each schools’ website, and are posted in each school cafeteria that participates in the program.

As a reminder….
When sending a lunch from home, please remember to pack napkins, silverware, condiments and containers as needed in your student’s lunch box. 
These items will not be provided by the Child Nutrition Program.
