Meals and/or Foods Outside of the Normal Meal Service (continued)
{"Image DocumentName": "Meals and/or Foods Outside of the Normal Meal Service (continued)", "Image ImageDescription": "Situation: A child with a disability must have a full breakfast each morning. Is the school food service required to provide a breakfast for this child even though a breakfast program is not available for the general school population? Response to Situation: The school food service is not required to provide services and meals to children with disabilities that are not otherwise available to children who are not disabled. If the school does not have a breakfast program already, it does not need to initiate a program exclusively for children with disabilities. However, if the IEP requires that a child receive a breakfast at school, the school must provide the service, and may choose to have the school food service handle the responsibility. Another exception to the general rule concerns a child with a disability who resides in a RCCI and requires special food service. In the case of RCCIs, the institution serves as the child s home, and the child would have no other recourse for meals. The RCCI must provide the child a full breakfast, if this is specified in the licensed physician s statement or in the IEP.", "Image XResolution": "37", "Image YResolution": "37", "Image ResolutionUnit": "Pixels/Centimeter", "Image Software": "SlidePlayer", "Image YCbCrPositioning": "Centered"}
