March is National Nutrition Month, a time to highlight the importance of healthy eating habits for our students and families. 🍎🥗🥛
Did you know?
1. In 2019, the National School Lunch Program provided almost 22 million children with free or low-cost lunches daily, and the School Breakfast Program gave over 12 million children free or low-cost breakfasts daily.
2. Despite challenges like bus schedules and early classes, schools are finding creative ways to increase breakfast participation, like grab-and-go options and serving breakfast in classrooms.
3. Family Costs: The weekly expense for school meals surpasses $67, considering the cumulative costs, for families with three school-aged children.
4. Portion sizes are designed to meet 1/3 of the recommended daily calorie allowance, with no limit on second helpings of fruits or vegetables. This allows students to fill up on a variety of nutritious foods.
5. Cafeteria staff often begin their day before dawn to start food preparation, ensuring meals are ready for lunchtime.
At Cardinal Local Schools, we are committed to making sure every student has access to healthy meals during the school day. A special thank you to our incredible cafeteria and nutrition staff who work hard every day to prepare and serve meals that keep our students fueled and ready to learn. Your dedication truly makes a difference for our school community! 👏🏼
Families who may qualify are encouraged to apply for Free or Reduced-Price Meals. Applying is quick and confidential.

⚖️ Courtroom in the Classroom
The Courtroom in the Classroom program brings real appellate court proceedings to high schools throughout the five-county jurisdiction, giving students a firsthand look at the judicial process in action.

Hands-on learning in Mrs. Mazzolini’s Advanced Quantitative Reasoning class! 📐🚀
Students recently designed and built marshmallow catapults to explore flight paths and create quadratic equations. After constructing their catapults, they must launch a mini marshmallow and consistently hit a specific measurement — combining engineering, problem-solving, and math in action.
