🍎 Child Nutrition ABCs: Letter V

Today’s alphabet adventure takes us to the letter V! From the tools that heat our meals to the incredible people who serve them, here is how V keeps our kitchens running at Md Fort:

🥗 Veggies- Thanks to our brand-new salad bars, we are so excited to offer our students more fresh vegetable options than ever before. It’s never been easier for our kids to “taste the rainbow” and fuel their bodies with the nutrients they need to succeed!

🔥 Vulcan- The backbone of the kitchen! Many of our schools are equipped with Vulcan ovens. These heavy-duty powerhouses ensure that every meal is cooked to perfection and served hot.

💨 Vent- A not-so-silent star of the kitchen! While they might be noisy sometimes, we are incredibly grateful for our hood vents. They are essential for kitchen safety, keeping the air clear and the environment comfortable for our hardworking staff.

🧤 Vinyl Gloves- Safety and sanitation are our top priorities. Depending on your hand size and preference, vinyl gloves might just be the perfect fit for you! They help us keep every meal prep station hygienic and safe.

👩‍🍳 Veronica- Last, but certainly not least, we’re highlighting our only teammate with a V name—Veronica! As the newest addition to the Md Fort team, Veronica has already proven herself to be an incredibly hard worker. We are so lucky to have her on board!

It’s a new day, and we are moving right along with our ABCs of Child Nutrition! 🍎 Today is brought to you by the letter U.

While “U” can be a tricky letter, it stands for some of the most essential parts of our daily operation. Here is what’s happening behind the scenes and on the tray:

👕 Uniforms: Presentation matters! Every day, our dedicated lunch staff follows a schedule of assigned colors and patterns. We believe that looking the part helps us stay professional and approachable for every student who walks through our line. When we look good, we feel good—and we’re ready to serve with a smile!

💻 URL: Looking for menus, carb lists, or payment portals? Everything you need is just a click away. Check out our URL (website) for all the latest updates and info to keep your student fueled and ready to learn.

🥪 Uncrustables: It’s no secret—these are a massive favorite across every age group in our schools. Whether you’re in Kindergarten or 12th grade, a PB&J Uncrustable is always a win. It’s the perfect, reliable grab-and-go protein boost!

🍴 Utensil Kits: Shout out to the unsung hero of the cafeteria! Our utensil kits are the essential tools that help deliver all that delicious food to our mouths every single day. We couldn’t do lunch without them!

🍎 The ABCs of Child Nutrition: Letter T 🍎

We’re back with our alphabet series, and today is all about the letter T! From the tiny hands we feed to the tools that keep our kitchens running, T covers a lot of ground in Child Nutrition.

🍽️ Trays for Eating: These paper or Styrofoam staples literally carry the load of the lunch! They keep every part of the meal perfectly compartmented for easy, mess-free eating.

🐯 Tiny Tigers: These toddlers are our littlest eaters. Just look at those cute faces—they’re just starting their nutritional journey!

🥔 Tots: “Eat your tots!” Whether you’re a kid or a kid at heart, who doesn’t love a crispy, golden potato?

🧑‍🏫 Trainings: Our team never stops learning! Throughout the year, staff members attend multiple trainings hosted by CNP, the district, the state, and even national organizations to stay at the top of our game.

🧑‍🍳 Trays for Cooking: We quite literally could not survive without these. From cooking to staging to serving, it feels like every kitchen has at least 400 on hand!

🦃 Thanksgiving: This is a huge highlight for us! Every year, our cooks prepare a special Thanksgiving feast the week before the holiday. It’s a massive undertaking, but our students are absolutely worth the extra effort.

🌡️ Thermometers: Our #1 priority is safety. Thermometers are our most essential tool for ensuring every meal is served at the perfect, safe temperature.

🧑‍🎓 Transition Students: Our mission doesn’t stop at high school. We are proud to feed some of the district’s oldest students right here on the district campus.

It’s time for another round of the Child Nutrition ABCs! Today is brought to you by the letter S, and we have a lot of “super” things (and people!) to talk about. 🍎✨

☀️ Summer Meals: The learning doesn’t stop, and neither does the eating! We serve up breakfast and lunch in select schools and lunch only at the parks. We can’t wait to see your smiling faces starting this June.

🚛 Sysco: Shoutout to our #1 provider! Sysco keeps us stocked with all our favorite foods and essential paper products. They deliver over the weekend, so our teams walk in every Monday morning to piles of new goodies ready to be prepped for the week.

🏫 Shadow Valley: The kitchen crew at Shadow Valley is a tight-knit group of happy-go-lucky ladies. Their positive energy is infectious, and we are so lucky to have them on our team!

🍗 Spicy Chicken: A certified fan-favorite! At the secondary schools, these sandwiches practically fly out of the kitchen. Get ready, little ones—this coming year we are piloting Spicy Chicken at the elementary level!

👩‍💼 Supervisor: Meet Amy, our ultimate “people person.” She is the heart of our operations, making sure our kitchens stay happy and every staff member is well taken care of.

🤝 SNA Ogden: This is our hometown organization for the OSD Child Nutrition family. From educational classes to fun get-togethers, SNA Ogden keeps us connected and growing together.

✨ SFS Pac: Ever wonder how our kitchens stay so shiny? We owe it to SFS Pac! They supply all our cleaning chemicals to ensure a sparkling, safe environment for meal prep.

📝 Secretary: Megan is our “go-to” lady for just about everything. Whether it’s swapping items on an order at the last minute or managing our social media, she keeps the gears turning behind the scenes.

🥗 Salad Bar: This is how we “taste the rainbow” every day! Our elementary students have a huge variety of fresh fruit and veggie options, while our high schoolers can always count on a large, fresh salad as a main dish option.

👤 Our “S” Staff:Finally, a huge shoutout to all of our incredible team members whose names start with S! Your hard work makes our department shine every single day.

🍎 The ABCs of Child Nutrition: Letter R 🍎

We’re rolling right along with our alphabet series! Today is brought to you by the letter R, covering everything from new menu favorites to the “fancy” tech behind our meals.

🍜 Ramen: We piloted Ramen at Ogden High this year, and it was an absolute hit! We heard your feedback loud and clear: catch it on the menu at all secondary schools starting next school year.

📻 Radio: Good food requires good vibes. All our kitchens love their music! A radio is a piece of essential equipment in our book—it keeps spirits high and the energy moving while we prep.

📚 Reading in the Parks: Feed the body, feed the mind. Weber Reads joins us in our parks every summer during lunchtime to share the love of books. Be sure to catch them this June!

🍳 Rational: These are the “fancy” ovens of the culinary world. Rational ovens are the high-tech heart of our newest kitchens, ensuring every meal is cooked to perfection.

🥗 Ranch: It’s no secret: our students love to dip! We go through thousands of cases of ranch across the district every single year. It’s the undisputed champion of side kicks.

📝 Rules and Regulations: They might not always seem like the “fun” part of the job, but these guidelines are what keep our program safe, compliant, and running smoothly every day.

🥐 Rolls: You don’t even need to look at the menu to know when it’s Roll Day. You can smell those fresh rolls baking from all the way down the hallway!

❤️ R-Team Shoutout: Finally, a massive thank you to our incredible staff members whose names start with R! Your hard work is the “recipe” for our success.

It’s Day Q of our Child Nutrition ABCs, and we’re keeping it “Q-t” with some of our favorite things! 🧀👑

Check out what’s on the menu (and on our minds) today:

🫕 Queso: Let’s be real—nachos are a total student favorite. Is there anything a little warm queso can’t fix? We don’t think so!

⏰ Quitting Time: It’s officially the favorite “hour” for every member of our hard-working team. Even heroes need a little R&R.

🍳 Quesadillas: Did you know these are a fantastic breakfast option at our elementary schools? They’re the perfect cheesy egg start to a day of learning.

👸 Queen of Everything: Last, but certainly not least, we have to shout out our amazing manager at Ogden High, Jill Barker. If you’ve ever received an email from her, you’ve seen her iconic sign-off: QOE. That stands for Queen of Everything, and we couldn’t agree more!

Stay tuned as we continue working our way through the alphabet! 🍎✨

🍎 The ABCs of Child Nutrition: Today is the Letter P! 🍎

We are halfway through our alphabet journey, and today is packed with some of our favorite people, places, and (of course) food! Check out what makes the letter P so special in our district:

💜 Polk Elementary: This school is easily one of our most joyous sites! They are always down for a fun promo activity and truly make school lunch a “happy place” for every student.

🛝 Parks: Don’t forget about us when the school year ends! Come visit us at the parks this summer for lunch—it’s the perfect way to stay fed while having fun in the sun. ☀️

🍕 Pizza: Let’s be honest—it’s the GOAT. We serve up fresh pizza every single Friday!

👧 Preschool: They might be one of our smallest sites, but they are small and mighty! Not only do they feed our youngest learners, but they also handle the food transport to George Washington.

📋 Production Records: This is the “brain” of our operation. It’s how we track exactly what is served to ensure we know exactly what to prep for next time.

🍩 Poptarts: A fan-favorite breakfast! Fun Fact: The Poptarts we serve are a special recipe made specifically for Child Nutrition; they have different nutritional stats than the ones you find at the grocery store.

📠 POS (Point of Sale): This is where the magic happens! Students enter their numbers here to connect their nutritious meals to their accounts.

🥧 Pi Day: We don’t miss a beat (or a circle) in our secondary schools! We celebrate with a variety of delicious pie options for our students.

💵 PayPams: The easiest way to keep those accounts ready to go! This is our online system used to deposit money directly into student accounts.

👸 Peggy: We have to give a huge shoutout to our only “P” employee! Peggy is the current SNA-Ogden President and brings so much energy and life to the committee and her kitchen. We are so grateful for her hard work!

Continuing our journey through the ABCs of Child Nutrition, we’ve reached a letter that represents the heart, the heat, and the hard work of our department.
Today is all about the Letter O! 🍊

🚀 Odyssey: First up, we’re shouting out Odyssey. This team has their decor on par. Their kitchen is consistently deep-cleaned to absolute perfection. You could practically see your reflection in those prep tables!

🍊 Oranges & Tangerines: A fan favorite across the board! Whether they come in classic orange or sweet tangerine form, our students (and staff) can’t get enough of these Vitamin C-packed snacks.

📝 Orders: Behind every great meal is great planning. Once a week, our dedicated kitchen managers place their food orders two full weeks in advance to ensure our pantries are stocked and ready for every hungry student.

🐅 Ogden High: No other kitchen has produced as many leaders as Ogden High! We have so much love for these ladies and the incredible legacy they’ve built. A huge shoutout and thank you to the current long-term male sub who is doing a fantastic job keeping the momentum going!

💻 The Office: This is where the “back-back-back” of the house magic happens. From administrative hurdles to essential staff trainings, our Office handles it all. Plus, we couldn’t do it without the incredible warehouse space it provides for our supplies.

🎓 OTech High: They might be one of our smallest locations, but don’t let the size fool you! OTech High offers a massive variety of options, proving that great things really do come in small packages.

🌡️ Ovens: Let’s be honest—a kitchen isn’t complete without its Ovens. They are the workhorses of our daily operations, turning raw ingredients into the warm, nutritious meals our kids love.

🏫 Ogden School District: At the end of the day, it’s all about the Ogden School District. We are so proud to work for this district and, most importantly, to serve the amazing students who walk through our doors every day.

🌟 Our “O” Superstars: Finally, a special mention to our two wonderful staff members with “O” names: Olga and Olena! Thank you for everything you do.

Next up in our Alphabet of Child Nutrition is the letter N! 🌟 From the science behind the meals to the “nuggets” of joy our staff provide, here is why N is so important to our schools:

🥗 Nutritionist: The mastermind behind the meals! She plans all our menus, ensures special dietary needs are met, and makes sure we are procuring the right foods under strict child nutrition guidelines.

🍎 The ABCs of Child Nutrition: Letter L Edition! 🍎

Love is in the air—and in the lunchroom! Today we are celebrating the letter L, featuring our amazing staff, some fan-favorite comfort food, and the schools that make us proud.

🍝 Lasagna: No frozen shortcuts here! We take pride in the fact that our lasagna is made homemade every single time, layered with care for that perfect “just like home” taste.

👩‍🍳 Lunch Ladies: They are the backbone of our department! Since 98% of our staff are women, it’s safe to say we simply couldn’t run this massive operation without their incredible hard work and dedication.

🍲 Lunchroom: The best place in the school! This is the hub where all that yummy, nutritious food finally goes into your belly.

👨‍🍳 Lunch Dudes: They may be a smaller portion of our workforce, but they are mighty! We are so grateful for our “Lunch Dudes” and the unique perspectives, diversity, and great ideas they bring to our kitchens.

🔒 Lockers: No better place for the lunch staff to store their things safely while busy at work.

🏫 Liberty: If you hear music and laughter, you’re probably at Liberty! This team is famous for having a blast while they work, often blasting Spanish music to keep the energy high and the cooking even better. 🎶

🚶 Lines: Don’t let the crowd fool you! While the lines might look long at first, our people have the system dialed in. They are pros at moving quickly so you aren’t standing there long.

🏫 Lincoln: This school is home to some of our most seasoned pros. They’ve seen it all and can tell you all about the “good old days” of making those legendary lunch lady peanut butter bars!

🧑‍🍳 Lucinda, Lo**ta, and Lacey: A huge shoutout to our three “L” ladies! We are so lucky to have this trio on our team, bringing their talent and hard work to our students every day.

🍎 The ABCs of Child Nutrition: Letter K Edition! 🍎

Today we are kicking it off with the letter K! From the heart of our buildings to the rules that keep our meals balanced, here is what’s happening in our world:

🥄 Kitchen: This is where all the magic happens! Our kitchens are the hubs of creativity, hard work, and delicious smells every single morning.

💜 Kindness: After the meals are prepped and the trays are ready, kindness is the most important ingredient we serve. A smile in the lunch line can change a student’s whole day.

🥝 Kiwi: This “cute” fruit is a student favorite! It adds a bright pop of color and a boost of Vitamin C to our fruit rotations.

🍅 Ketchup: Let’s be honest—every student loves their sauces! Ketchup is easily one of our most-requested condiments to pair with lunch.

🔪 Knives: A fundamental tool of the trade! What kitchen do you know that doesn’t have knives? They are essential for prepping all those fresh fruits and veggies.

✅ K-12 Requirements: It’s not just about cooking; it’s about science! We follow strict federal rules and regulations to ensure every school meal meets specific nutritional targets for our students.
