Details from Nutrition Services
We do not let our students go hungry. Students will be provided with a complimentary meal (choice of PBJ or Grilled Cheese) that includes all 5 components of MyPlate if they do not have an account balance. Please let your secondary student know they can check their balance prior to getting in line at our Check your Balance station.
Our cafeterias offer a variety of items daily. We offer all components of MyPlate with many whole grains, proteins, fresh fruit, an assortment of fruit cups, cooked and fresh veggies, 1% Chocolate, 1% Strawberry, Skim or 1% White Milk. We sell fruit, veggies, and 2nd Lunches as A la Carte at Secondary Schools. We also have a vending machine at the High School allowing students to purchase items on their account. Please send an email to Vickie Coffey at vcoffey@rbbschools.net if you would like ANY RESTRICTIONS on your student’s vending machine access.
We do not offer snacks at our Elementary Schools. Students may purchase a milk only for $.50.

Volunteer Background Checks
To insure the ongoing safety of our students, Edgewood conducts its background checks through SafeVisitor Solutions.
If you plan on volunteering in any way (in classrooms, attending field trips, birthday
celebrations, etc.), background checks must be completed. Click this link to access the form.
We encourage families to start the process sooner rather than waiting until an event takes place that
they wish to attend.
It is a thorough background check and does take some time. There is also a fee of approximately $18.00, but the clearance is good for 5 years. Additional fees may be incurred if an individual has moved across multiple states or had name changes.
