Nutrition Services
|
Children in BCESC Preschool Programs learn as much about nutrition as they do about colors, letters, shapes and numbers. Various activities teach healthy food choices to children and families.
Nutritionally-sound meals and snacks are provided daily in each classroom. Our children take part in a family-style setting where they set the table, serve food, and socialize with each other.
As part of the total health services delivery system, each child receives a thorough nutrition assessment. Health plans are developed for children found to be at risk, and a follow-up assessment is completed prior to children leaving the program.
BCESC Preschool Programs will accommodate your child's individual medical or religious dietary needs. Meals are prepared in accordance with Child and Adult Food Care Program (CACFP) requirements and provide at least 1/3 of children’s daily nutritional requirements. A registered dietician is available to consult with parents and will provide assistance to teachers to ensure that dietary requirements are observed during classroom meals.
