Food & Nutrition Services

Our site is designed to give you a healthy dose of information about the Food & Nutrition Services Department at ECOS. We have great things to share about our breakfast and lunch programs! As you navigate this site, you will find links that will assist you with applying for free and reduced meals, how to put money on a student’s account, the monthly menus, and much more!

We provide healthy, balanced meals to help ensure students have every opportunity to succeed in academic, athletic, and personal growth. We follow the USDA Child Nutrition Guidelines.   All of our Managers and Food & Nutrition Services Assistants are dedicated professionals, well-trained in Food Safety and are Servsafe certified.

We Believe

We believe that every child is a top priority. We provide a healthy and positive culture where communication between our Food & Nutrition Services team, ECOS, parents, and students is top-notch. We, as a team, are dedicated to you and your children.  We strive to continually better our services and meet your needs through your suggestions and comments. We are committed to providing excellent customer service and making all of our student’s number #1!

SFSP

The Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) was created to ensure that children in lower-income areas could continue to receive nutritious meals during long school vacations when they do not have access to the National School Lunch or School Breakfast Programs. The SFSP, also known as Meet Up and Eat Up, is operated at the local level by program sponsors and is administered in Michigan by the Michigan Department of Education (MDE), Office of Health and Nutrition Services.
