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! 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 for 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 are put on including protein, whole foods and grains, healthy fats, and fruits and vegetables in each meal.

The majority our meals at CoG are vegetarian with an animal protein served at least once per week. Protein is served at lunchtime daily in the form of legumes, tofu, beans, cheese, turkey, chicken, or fish.
