The Decatur County School Nutrition Program is celebrating National School Lunch Week with a little extra fun and a whole lot of smiles!
Since Fall Break fell during the official celebration, our School Nutrition team decided to keep the festivities going a week later!
As part of the celebration, we welcomed Rowdy Roasters to Hutto Elementary School, where faculty and staff were treated to FREE roasted corn! 🌽 Meanwhile, our lunchroom staff got into the spirit by clowning around and spreading plenty of laughter along the way! 🤡
A special thank you to Rowdy Roasters and our dedicated School Nutrition team for making this celebration a fun one! We appreciate all they do to keep our Bearcats happy, healthy, and fueled for success! 💜💛

🚌💜💛 It's School Bus Safety Week & Driver Appreciation!
This week, we're celebrating the dedicated school bus drivers who go the extra mile to ensure our Bearcats arrive at school and return home safely each day!
Our drivers do so much more than transport students. They're familiar faces, friendly smiles, and an important part of the Decatur County Schools family.
As we recognize School Bus Safety Week, we also remind our community to do their part by slowing down, staying alert, and stopping for school buses.
👏 Join us in thanking our incredible transportation team for the miles they drive, the students they serve, and the difference they make every day!
