Yes my school staff also seemed very relieved when I said he wouldn't be buying lunch except for on pizza days. I met with Food Services Director to arrange for him to note his allergies on his account, and allow for purchase of pizza and ice pops only. First question he asked was, "Does your child have a 504 Plan?" Because you need one for Food Services to make accomodations for safe food, outlined clearly in USDA regulations.
Do you think all schools follow this? I have a friend without a 504 for pn allergy and the cafeteria has a "flag" on her account alerting them of her allergy. Would this not be the same as an accommodation?

The irony - we can force a "healthy" lunch on your child but will do nothing to stop the cupcakes, candy and other extraneous foods being shoved in their face.
Yeah, as an FA parent, this is horrifying to me.
