Food Focus

Student Success and Well Being

We share our knowledge of the life-enhancing benefits of good nutrition with students, our families and our communities.

In order to make good decisions about the foods they eat, we believe that students need two things: healthy options and the insight to choose wisely.

Sustainability

Chartwells is committed to the environment and sustainability initiatives that enrich our student’s lives, and our communities. We:

Champion local farmers and fair trade.
Reduce the use of antibiotics in chicken.
Promote farm animal welfare through the use of cage-free shell eggs as a customized solution for interested districts.
Use dairies for milk and yogurt that do not treat cows with growth hormone.
Choose vendors that have established standards regarding the humane treatment of animals.
Commit to healthier oceans with sustainable seafood purchasing policies.
Promote locally grown produce and support local farms for Chartwells partner school districts

USDA regulations and South Whidbey school district policy allow the following alternative to milk to be served:

Pacific Natural Ultra Soy Milk, Vanilla, a USDA-approved soy milk, for children who are allergic to cow’s milk or when cultural, religious, or ethical reasons eliminate cow’s milk consumption.

Please NOTE: The USDA does not allow water or juice as milk substitutions. We are therefore unable to serve them in place of milk, even if a physician’s order is provided.

To make arrangements for your child to be served one of our available milk substitutions, please send a written request to your child’s school nurse. The written request should include:

Your child’s name, grade, and teacher;
Which product you would like your child to receive (soy milk); and
A parent or guardian’s signature
