Meal Modifications

Meal Modifications

Telluride School District:

 

  1. Will make meal modifications prescribed by a licensed physician, advanced practice nurse with prescriptive authority, physician assistant, or registered dietitian to accommodate a disability.
  2. Will make substitutions for dietary preferences, religious preferences, or cultural preferences.

Note: Meal modifications will only be accommodated for one of the reasons listed above. No other meal modifications will be accommodated.

The Medical Statement for Meal Modification and Dietary Preference Form for Meal Modification forms are included below. On the front of each form, there are further instructions and information about the meal modifications that can be requested under federal regulations.

Please read this information carefully before completing the appropriate form.

To ensure safe meal modifications can be made for your child, return the completed medical statement to Christine Reich at creich@telluride.k12.co.us or to the District Offices at 725 W. Colorado Ave.

IMPORTANT: The only fluid cow’s milk substitutions allowed by USDA: (1) lactose-free fluid cow’s milk (1% or skim) or (2) a non-dairy beverage with a nutrient profile equivalent to fluid cow’s milk as specified in USDA regulation 7 CFR 210.10(d)(3) unless another substitution is noted on the Medical Statement for Meal Modification.
