Break-Fact: Breakfast builds brainpower! 🥣✨
At Dallas ISD, our school breakfast program follows USDA nutrition standards to provide meals with less added sugar, reduced sodium, and more of the nutrients students need. Every choice is designed to help children start the day focused, energized, and ready to succeed. 💪📚

At Dallas ISD Food & Child Nutrition Services, our Central Kitchen is more than a place where meals are made — it’s where opportunity begins.

From fueling early college students as they chase their dreams to supporting schools under construction or in need of kitchen upgrades, our team works every day to make sure every student has access to fresh, nutritious meals — no matter where they learn.

Because when students are nourished, they’re ready to achieve anything. 💛

🍪 Happy National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day! 🍪
Crispy, chewy, gooey — no matter how you like them, chocolate chip cookies are the ultimate classic treat! 🧡

Fun fact: The first chocolate chip cookie was created by accident in the 1930s… and we’ve been grateful ever since! 🍫

While they’re a sweet indulgence, enjoying them in moderation can be part of a balanced lifestyle. Treat yourself!

On Friday, August 1, 2025, Food & Child Nutrition Services was proud to participate in the 29th Annual Dallas Mayor’s Back to School Fair at Fair Park!

This incredible event, hosted by Mayor Eric Johnson, brings together the City of Dallas, Dallas ISD, nonprofits, businesses, and dedicated volunteers to support families and students as they prepare for a strong start to the school year.

We were excited to connect with the community, share information about our school meals program, and highlight the work we do to help students thrive every day — starting with nutrition!

Thank you to everyone who stopped by our booth and to all who make this event possible. We’re proud to be part of a community committed to student success from Pre-K through 12th grade.

Today, our Cafeteria Supervisors gathered at Maria Luna for the Back-to-School Training—a day focused on connection, preparation, and building momentum for a successful school year.

Supervisors were warmly welcomed by our leadership team, who shared words of encouragement and helped set the tone for the year ahead.

Throughout the day, cafeteria supervisors participated in training sessions designed to refresh what they already know, while also providing important updates and an overview of what's ahead.

We’re proud to support the people who lead our cafeterias with heart, purpose, and a daily commitment to student wellness.
