FCS will celebrate March 2-6, 2026. National School Breakfast Week (NSBW) celebrates the importance of a nutritious school breakfast in fueling students for success. NSBW, at its core, is about promoting nutritious breakfast menu items in an engaging way for students.  Students will be encouraged to show their enthusiasm for school breakfast as the district celebrates with Breakfast for Lunch, limited-time-only breakfast specials, a Lucky Tray Day, social media giveaways, and special Celebrity Servers serving up nutritious & delicious breakfast.   For the whole month of March, the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics is devoted to providing nutrition education and information to the public. This year's theme is "Discover the Power of Nutrition." Nutrition has the power to help individuals and communities thrive. Discover how food and beverage choices can help power your day. Learn tips for accessing healthy foods in your area. And build healthy habits into your day to help you feel great now and in the future. School meals take part in National Nutrition Month by providing meals that are nutritionally sound and offer all-inclusive meal options that fuel student achievement.   For more information about healthy menus and meal pattern guidelines visit www.fcsnutrition.com. Fulton County School Nutrition Helps Tackle Hunger Aligned with the 60th Annual Super Bowl, Fulton County School cafes enjoyed Super Bowl themed activities February 2-6, 2026, including the 8th Annual Tackle Hunger Canned Food Drive. Each café had a designated donation box for canned goods or non-perishable food items. At the end of the week, 2,468 cans & non-perishable items were donated to the Bear Creek Middle School’s Food Pantry, BackPacks of Love, and North Fulton Community Charities. Backpacks of Love delivers backpacks of food and other needed items to 18 different schools in North Fulton counties. Thank you to all our donators who helped change the game & tackle hunger! Red-y, Set, Potato! During February, farm fresh Red Potatoes are taking center stage in Fulton County School Nutrition’s Harvest of the Month initiative! These vibrant potatoes come straight from regional family farms to our students’ lunch trays—supporting local growers while reducing transportation miles for a more sustainable community and environment.   Red Potatoes are a student favorite and shine as a key ingredient in our signature Low Country Boil, adding classic Southern comfort to the menu. Red Potatoes are a good source of vitamin C and potassium—important nutrients that help support immune health and muscle function.   Be sure to enjoy these delicious, locally grown Red Potatoes at lunch all month long! We’re Featured on the “Let’s Talk Schools” Podcast!   Fulton County School Nutrition is excited to be featured in Episode 6 of the “Let’s Talk Schools” podcast!  Tune in as we share how our team fuels student success every day — from menu innovation and nutrition standards to creating meals students love.
