Nutrition

Welcome to the School Nutrition Program of the Rome City Schools. The elementary school breakfast menu is on a five-day cycle and the elementary school lunch menu is on an 10-day cycle. In order to comply with the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) standards and nutritional analyses, the School Nutrition Program at Rome Middle and Rome High Schools participate in a five-day cycle menu for both breakfast and lunch.

A cycle menu is a listing of food by day. Rome City Schools' centralized menu features one entree every day with an additional entree choice added by the SNP manager at the individual school site.

Every day each student has a choice of at least two entrees, three vegetables, two fruits, and a choice of milk. Each day's menu is analyzed for caloric, fat, sodium, vitamin, and mineral information. The nutritional information for each menu is available through the Rome City Schools' School Nutrition Office. If you would like this information or have any questions concerning the School Nutrition Program, please contact: Mrs. Brandy Money; School Nutrition Program Director; Rome City Schools; 508 East Second Street; Rome, GA 30161; phone 706/236-5050.

Menus may vary due to availability of food products. Foreign food fare, festivals and special holidays will be at the manager's discretion.
