Dear Parents and Guardians,
We are thrilled to announce the return of our beloved Brighter Bites program here at CLES. After much anticipation and planning, we are excited to reinstate this valuable service that plays a crucial role in supporting our students' health and well-being.
Our food program has always been a cornerstone of our commitment to providing nutritious and balanced meals, and we are eager to welcome your children back to a dining experience that is both delicious and health-conscious. With improvements and updates to enhance the program, we believe it will offer even greater benefits to our school community.

Dear Staff at Cherokee Lane,
CONGRATS on completing another successful year of programming with Brighter Bites!
It is an honor and privilege to build a community of health within your school community.
We are grateful for the moments we have share together, the passion this community has for our program,
and the incredible people we meet along the way.
Through your support, hard work, and passion, we are able to successfully touch the lives
of so many students and their families and make a lasting impact on their health.
Here is a snapshot of what we accomplished together this year, along with all of our schools.
