Between preparing delicious food, adhering to strict nutrition standards, navigating student food allergies, and offering service with a smile, our nutrition professionals have a lot on their plate. To celebrate their hard work and commitment, Woodville schools will celebrate School Lunch Hero Day on May 2. This day, celebrated annually since 2013, was designated by The School Nutrition Association and Jarrett Krosoczka, author of the “Lunch Lady” graphic novel series. School Lunch Hero Day provides an opportunity for parents, students, school staff and communities to thank those who provide healthy meals to nearly 30 million of America’s students each school day.
All across the school district, school nutrition professionals will be honored and recognized by students, school staff, parents, and the community. School nutrition employees must balance many roles and follow numerous federal, state and local regulations to ensure safe and healthy meals are available in schools. School Lunch Hero Day provides the opportunity for the community to thank these hardworking heroes for their dedication to fueling our students for success.
Federal nutrition standards ensure that school cafeterias always offer low-fat or fat-free milk, fruits, vegetables, whole grains and lean protein. School meals also meet limits on calories, sodium and unhealthy fats. The importance and nutritional value of school meals are well documented. For many children, school lunch is the most important and nutrient-rich meal of their day.
Thank you Woodville ISD lunch ladies! You are appreciated!

🧩 April is Autism awareness month and we shine a light on the important ways public schools support students with special learning needs.
🌟 Every student deserves the chance to learn and thrive. Thanks to federal law and Texas regulations, students with autism get the personalized support they need to shine in school and beyond.
🧩 The federal IDEA law (Individuals with Disabilities Education Act) guarantees Free Appropriate Public Education (FAPE) for those needing extra help.
🎓 Texas Schools Are Here to Help
Texas public schools support over 70,000 students with autism annually, making up more than 13% of all special education students. (TEA)
💡 Specialized Learning Plans
Recognizing the unique needs of students with autism, Texas schools follow specific rules to address these in the IEP (Individualized Education Plan), notably through the Autism Supplement.
📝 What’s the Autism Supplement?
The Autism Supplement guides educators with research-based practices to help students with autism succeed, providing teachers with essential tools for top-notch education.
🚀 Why It Matters
Every student deserves to thrive. IDEA and Texas regulations ensure students with autism receive personalized support to excel in school and beyond. 🌟 #CelebrateTexasPublicSchools
