Accommodating Children with Special Dietary Needs in the School Nutrition Program.
If a child has been determined by a doctor to be disabled and the disability (ie. food intolerances or allergies) would prevent the child from eating the regular school meal, the school will make substitutions as prescribed by the doctor.
Schools may, but are not required to make substitutions for students who have a "special" dietary need that has not been verified by a doctor. The student must meet the definition of having a disability.
Lactose-Free Milk is available for those students with a non-disabling dietary need. (such as milk intolerance, or reasons due to cultural, religious, or ethnic beliefs)
