MEALTIME

Mealtime at Center of Gravity is a special time when all of our students and teachers come together to nourish their minds and bodies! Meals are served family-style with the teachers coaching students through serving themselves the appropriate amount of food for their size and hunger level. Teachers and staff sit with children during mealtime and enjoy pleasant conversation.

Children are never forced to eat but rather encouraged to taste new foods and teachers explain eating as being responsible and caring with our bodies.

All meals are prepared fresh by our Food & Wellness Associate.

NUTRITION

We follow state standard guidelines for serving healthy meals and snacks in child-sized servings. Special emphasis and care is put on including whole grains, healthy fats and fruits and vegetables in each meal.

Animal protein is served two-three times per week in the form of turkey, chicken, and fish.
