Food Allergies and Substitutions

Kennewick School District supports access to healthy meals to all children, including children with disabilities who have special dietary needs.  Disability is defined as an impairment that substantially limits a major life activity.  This can include allergies and digestive conditions.  However, it does not include personal diet preferences.  The procedure below has been developed to address these priorities.

Upon enrollment in Kennewick School District, health history information is gathered in Power School.  Concerns about allergies and sensitivities are addressed with the school nurse.   Dietary accommodations are reviewed by the school nurse and routed as follows:

•    Parent
•    Student health file
•    504 case file (counselor)
•    Nutrition Services office
•    School Cook

As Nutrition Services becomes aware a meal modification is needed, Nutrition Services will not unduly delay providing the modification while awaiting the medical statement.  Instead, Nutrition Services will begin providing a reasonable modification to keep the child safe, and request the family provide a medical statement signed by a State Recognized Medical Authority to support the meal modification as soon as possible. Once accommodations have started, parents/guardian will be given 45 days to return the signed Request for Special Dietary Accommodation form to the Nutrition Services Department.  Date of approval will be noted on the applicable form(s).

 For your clarification, below are rules KSD follows to be compliant with state and federal regulation.
