On May 5, Clay County Schools celebrated school nutrition professionals. When we say they are heroes, we mean it. Schools across the country recognize the difference these team members make for every child who comes through their cafeteria.

Between preparing delicious food, adhering to strict nutrition standards, navigating student food allergies and offering service with a smile, these lunch ladies have a lot on their plate.

School Lunch Hero Day provides the opportunity for parents, students, school staff and the community to thank these hard working heroes for their dedication to fueling our students for success.
