WAIVER APPLICATION
The Clyde Savannah Central School District has requested a waiver from New York State Department of Education and USDA for the following regulations to allow meals to be provided in non-congregate settings for district enrolled students receiving off-campus alternative education, to ensure that we can continue to focus on providing meals and meal supplements safely to effected children.

MEAL PATTERN: Helping Build a Healthier Student Body
Food and Nutrition Services recognizes the important connection between a healthy diet and a student's ability to learn effectively and achieve high standards in school. As a part of our commitment to help build a healthier student body, our department ensures that all menus meet the required nutrient levels for specific grade groups. Many positive changes have been made to the meals our students are offered as a result of the Healthy Hunger Free Kids Act of 2010. The selections offered focus on meeting the standards for sodium, calories, saturated fat and trans-fat. In addition, we ensure that menus, when averaged over the week, provide the amount of grains and proteins within the allowable ranges.
Regulations require menu items to be categorized into five (5) food components: Fruits, Vegetables, Grains, Protein, and Milk. Each day, students are offered a variety of items from each food component. These changes mean students will have more choices of fresh fruits and vegetables available daily. We offer locally grown produce when available and affordable. They will also have protein, whole grains and low-fat or fat free milk choices. All menus will continue to be nutritionally analyzed to ensure compliance within the new stricter guidelines.
BREAKFAST MEAL PATTERN-ALL GRADE LEVELS
The components for breakfast are: Fruits, Grains, Protein, and Milk. In order to receive free breakfast, students must select at least three (3) of the four (4) components offered, with one component being a fruit. Students may select one (1) item from each of the four (4) components offered.
LUNCH MEAL PATTERN-ALL GRADE LEVELS
The components for lunch are: Fruits, Vegetables, Grains, Protein, and Milk. In order to receive free lunch, a student must select at least three (3) different components, one (1) of the selections must be a fruit or vegetable.
Food and Nutrition Services is committed to providing the students of Clyde Savannah with an affordable and nutritious school breakfast and lunch. If you have any questions regarding the menus or nutrients, please contact
