Welcome back to to the "Dining Rooms" of Onslow County Schools. We anticipate another rewarding year of providing quality service and meals to your child daily and your family. Parents are invited anytime your schedule permits.

Child Nutrition employs approximately 220 staff in every capacity engaged in providing meals to our student population.  Last year, we served approximately 19,000 meal equivalents each school day.  We anticipate including your children. Each meal meets applicable recommendations of the new requirements of the school meal pattern.  The standard for school lunches is to provide age appropriate calorie limits, requirement of selected a fruit or vegetable- now in two categories, all milk is skim or 1%, and lower sodium.  You are welcome to inquire specific details of any selections from our office.

Just as the fast food industry spends billions of dollars in marketing products and services, we spend approximately $4.5 million annually for food to include entitlements from USDA Food Distribution Program.
