STUDENT TASTE TESTING OPPORTUNITY
On Friday, October 12, our Middle and High School students participated in an exciting food sampling event featuring vibrant new menu options: Chicken Tikka Masala, Teriyaki Chicken, Cilantro Lime Rice, and Naan Bread.
Students had the chance to try these new dishes and submit their votes on what they enjoyed most. We loved seeing everyone step out of their culinary comfort zones and share their feedback.
We extend a warm thank you to Brad Mansfield from CORE Foodservice and Greg Brooks from International Food Solutions for giving their time to create such a great experience for our school community!
Reminder that breakfast and lunch are available daily to all students for FREE. This is provided through a USDA-sponsored program.

MEDICATION FORM REMINDER
Keep Your Student Safe and Ready to Learn!
Help us support your child's health without interrupting their school day! If your student requires any over-the-counter or prescription medication, Tylenol, or Ibuprofen at school, please submit an Administering Medication Form signed by a doctor (one form per medication). Having this form on file allows us to give your student what they need so they can stay comfortable, healthy, and in class.
Emergency Meds (EpiPens & Asthma Inhalers): With physician authorization on the form, students can carry these with them. We strongly encourage high schoolers to self-carry due to after-school sports and activities.
Where to Find Forms: Download the form directly from the TVS website and return it to the school nurse.
Questions? Reach out to the school office anytime—we are happy to help!
