Our Commitment to Nutrition
Nurturing Healthy Minds and Bodies
At South Columbus Elementary, we believe that proper nutrition is the cornerstone of a successful learning environment. Our comprehensive nutrition program is designed to provide students with balanced, wholesome meals that support their academic and physical development. By integrating fresh produce from our greenhouse and farmers market, we ensure that our students receive the best possible nutrition.
Our agricultural activities are not just about growing food; they are about cultivating a sense of responsibility and understanding of where food comes from. Students actively participate in planting, harvesting, and preparing the produce, which fosters a deeper appreciation for healthy eating habits. This hands-on experience is crucial in teaching them the importance of nutrition and how it impacts their overall well-being.
