Meal Accommodation Requests

OUSD Nutrition Services is committed to accommodating students with medical disabilities, including food allergies, chronic diseases, and other medical conditions that affect eating. While we currently do not offer accommodations for dietary preferences, including religious restrictions or vegetarian/vegan diets, we strive to make our menu inclusive by offering plant-based options and ensuring that no pork is served.

To request a meal accommodation: download the form below, bring it to a physician to complete, then return it to your child's school administration staff and/or the school nurse. You might be contacted for follow-up as needed.

Nut Free School Zone

OUSD is a completely nut free district.

Our school meals do not include any tree nuts or peanuts, and all of our meals are prepared in nut free facilities in an effort to protect students with nut allergies.
