Nutritional Information and Special Diets
Our Nutrition Specialists address the food and nutrition needs within each school. Carbohydrate Counts, Nutritional Analysis, Food Allergen Information, and Special Diets can be found on this page.
Special Diets
Special Diets are provided to students with a disability or medical condition that limits a major life activity such as breathing or learning; or to students with severe or life-threatening food allergies.
A current LAUSD Special Diet Memo and Form must be completed and signed by Medical Authority. This form must be completed in its entirety and returned to school cafeteria. If the form is not complete, the special diet cannot be processed. This form must be updated annually.
If you need to discontinue a Special Diet for your child, please complete the Discontinue Special Diet Form.
Unfortunately, LAUSD is unable to accommodate special diets based on personal preferences or religious convictions.
