The MMSD Food & Nutrition Department participates in the School Breakfast, National School Lunch, and Afterschool Snack Programs, as well as offering ala carte sales at the majority of secondary school sites, during the school year. The District continues to offer meals at numerous school and community sites as part of the Summer Food Program for eight weeks during the summer. The Food & Nutrition Department utilizes a central Food Preparation Center (FPC) at 4711 Pflaum Road on Madison’s eastside. The FPC receives, prepares, packages and distributes the majority of items served in schools, with the exception of four high schools that directly receive deliveries from vendors. Approximately 18,500 meals are served as part of the USDA programs per day during the school year, while the Summer Food Program serves approximately 2,000 to 2,500 meals daily
