SMART SNACKS IN SCHOOL STANDARDS

If fundraising during school hours, snacks are limited by Federal Policy; the USDA Smart Snack Standards below.

Exceptions to the rule

Good News! SDP’s Wellness Policy also says that K-8 schools may have up to 5 fundraisers a year that do NOT meet these standards and High Schools may have up to 10. Use these forms to help you  keep track of these fundraisers.
