Food & Nutrition

Lunch

Katy ECEC has two options for children’s lunches. Hot lunches are catered daily from Simply Fresh Kitchen. Lunches must be ordered in advance for 2, 3 or 5 days per week. There is an additional cost for catered lunches. See menu below for additional information.

Parents can provide lunch for your child in a lunch box labeled with their name. Healthy nutritious lunches are strongly encouraged. Lunches should be prepared ready to eat and easily accessible to your child. Facilities are not available to heat lunches. If your child’s lunch contains foods that need to stay refrigerated, please put a cold pack in with the food to maintain appropriate temperatures.

The staff of ECEC takes the necessary steps to ensure the safety of food brought from home. They work with families to ensure that food brought from home meet the USDA’s CACFP food guidelines. The guidelines can be found at www.usda.gov.

Snacks

Katy ECEC will provide mid-morning and afternoon snacks each day. A monthly snack menu is posted on the parent board.

Please advise the director of any allergies and/or special dietary needs your child may have.
