Nutrition Program

At Gatestone, we recognize that food insecurity is a growing concern for many of our families.

This fall we secured a grant through the Heritage Green Community Trust and this spring we were able to secure an additional grant through Tastebuds. These grants allow us to operate our nutrition program snack cart for students 2-3 days/week. We have also received support from some families who have generously donated items (pre-packaged, nut-free).

We offer open access to a snack to those students who need additional food to supplement their lunch brought from home (e.g., cereal/granola bar, cheese string) and/or piece of fruit (e.g., apple, banana, clementine). Our snack program cart is located in the main office and students can access when needed.
