Autauga County Child Nutrition Program


The mission of the Child Nutrition Program in the Autauga County Schools is to provide the students of the school district the best possible nutrition under the best possible health and safety conditions.

The Child Nutrition Program, which is a federal program, is a vital part of the total education program in Autauga County.  Annually, we serve over one million lunches and a little over four hundred and fifty thousand breakfasts.  Also, we provide after school snacks to the schools that are participants in this program.  All facets of the meals served meet USDA requirements. 

 

Parents:  You can apply for free/reduced meals on-line!  This is the fastest process for determination of eligibility!  Go to www.schoollunchapp.com and begin the process today.  If you have questions or need any help, please call our office at 334-361-0805.
