Overview of State, Federal, and Wellness Policy Regulations
Please review all the information listed very carefully. The federal government and the District's Wellness Policy requires that all foods and beverages sold on campus must be recorded AND must meet the Nutrition Standards set forth by the California Department of Education (CDE).

In this google doc, please record any fundraisers/events hosted by your group on campus during the school day (midnight up to 30 minutes after the official school day ends) where food and beverages are sold to students on campus.  In addition, please provide a list of what is being provided to students.

To view the Wellness Policy which provides the Nutrition Standards (listed on page 19), and to view the Resource Guide which provides a list of compliant food and beverages that can be sold to students on campus, please visit:  https://www.tusd.org/nutrition-services/wellness-policy.
 
Please note a few key passages listed below from the TUSD Wellness Policy:

- Each school ensures foods and beverages sold on school campus to students starting at midnight and up to one half hour after the school day, including fundraisers, will promote optimal health and will meet or exceed state and federal guidelines.

- Documentation of nutrition information for foods sold outside of Nutrition Services on school campus starting at midnight and up to one half hour after the school day shall be kept on file by the school at which the event occurs.

- To reinforce the district’s nutrition standards, each school prohibits the marketing and advertising of noncompliant foods and beverages through signage, posters, menu boards, coolers, trashcans, other foodservice equipment, as well as cups for beverage dispensing, vending machine fronts, logos, scoreboards, school supplies, advertisements in school publications, coupon or incentive programs, free giveaways, or other means.

- Classroom celebrations involving food are limited to no more than four celebrations per year for K-12. Classroom celebrations involving food for kindergarten through 5th grade (K-5) must occur after the last lunch period. Classroom celebrations involving food may occur throughout the school day for grades 6 through 12 (6-12). Foods and beverages provided for these classroom celebrations will meet or exceed state and federal regulations that pertain to Nutrition Services.

- Homemade foods aren't allowed for celebrations unless brought for individual consumption.
