📢 New Arizona Healthy Schools Act Takes Effect This School Year
Sierra Vista Unified School District is committed to keeping families informed about changes that affect our schools. Beginning this school year, Arizona's Healthy Schools Act (A.R.S. §15-242.01) establishes new statewide requirements for certain foods and beverages shared with students during the school day.
Please note: This is an Arizona state law, not an SVUSD-created rule. All public schools across Arizona are required to comply.
Here's what families need to know:
🥪 Students may still bring their own lunches and snacks from home for their personal consumption.
🚫 Students may not share lunches or snacks that contain any of the prohibited ingredients listed in the new law.
🎉 Birthdays, holidays, and classroom celebrations will continue! If food is brought to share with classmates, it must comply with the Arizona Healthy Schools Act.
🍎 Good news! Our food service partner, SFE, is already in compliance with the new law. All breakfasts, lunches, snacks, and beverages served through SVUSD meet the state's new requirements.
🎈 Elementary & K–8 Families: To make celebrations easy, our Food Service Department will offer Celebration Packs that include a compliant drink and cookies for $2 per student. More information and order forms will be available in your school office soon.
Thank you for partnering with us as we implement this new statewide requirement and continue creating healthy, welcoming schools for all students.
