Special Dietary Concerns

School cafeterias must provide substitutions or modifications to children with disabilities as based on a written prescription from a licensed physician at no additional cost. South Western's cafeterias will also make every attempt to modify meals for students without disabilities but with medically certified special dietary needs. Disabilities may include but are not limited to food anaphylaxis, metabolic diseases, orthopedic, visual, speech, and hearing impairments, heart disease, cancer, and HIV. Other special dietary needs will be handled on a case by case basis. A special dietary need may consist of a food intolerance or non-life threatening allergy. All Medical Statements should be directed to the district food services office located at 225 Bowman Road.
