MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS MONTH
May is Mental Health Awareness Month. Did you know that 1 in 5 people will experience a mental health condition this year? Stay tuned all month long for tips to support your family's mental health.
Green is the official color for mental health awareness, representing hope and renewal. Join Fredericksburg City Public Schools by wearing green on Tuesday, May 14th.


Not All Heroes Wear Capes
Stop by any cafeteria to watch school nutrition professionals prepare healthy meals for students-all the while adhering to strict nutrition standards, navigating student food allergies, and offering service with a smile- and you'll see they are true heroes.
This is the reason we celebrate School Lunch Hero Day every year on the first Friday in May. This annual observance is a chance to showcase what a difference school nutrition professionals make in the lives of every child who comes through the cafeteria.
