	Welcome to the web-site for child nutrition programs. The North Dakota Department of Public Instruction administers several nutrition programs of the United States Department of Agriculture. This page provides information about frequently asked questions, such as: What are schools required to serve in the school lunch and school breakfast programs? What are other schools serving on their menus? How do I apply for free and reduced price meals for my children? If you have suggestions for improving the information we have available, click on Have a Question/Need Assistance.  Our nutritionists and program administrators are here to help you. Create Healthy, Active Celebrations! Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) has a new resource entitled Create Healthy, Active Celebrations!  It offers ideas to parents and caregivers on ways to make healthy eating and physical activity experiences part of special events, celebrations and everyday meals Flyer Announcement Quick PowerPoint Over View Fact Sheet: Why are School Lunch Prices Going UP?
