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.

New this school year (2025-26), we are proud to launch OUSD CARES (Customized Allergy Responsive Eating Solutions), which provides meals free of the top nine allergens to better support students with food allergies and other medical dietary restrictions.

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

Please allow 2-3 weeks from the date of submission to the Nutrition Services dietitian for processing and coordination of OUSD CARES Meals.
