It’s National School Lunch Week! This week shines a spotlight on the importance of healthy, balanced meals that fuel our Dukes’ success—both in and out of the classroom. Research shows that students enjoy some of their healthiest meals at school, and school meal programs play a key role in promoting good nutrition, overall wellness, and academic achievement.
The Marlboro Central School District is proud to continue offering breakfast and lunch at no cost to all students. A big thank-you to our hard-working Food Services team for preparing these nutritious, delicious meals every day!
