The National School Lunch Program requires that student lunches consist of at least two ounces of meat or meat alternative (cheese, yogurt etc.); ¾ cup of fruit and vegetables derived from at least two different sources; a minimum of one bread or bread product; and 8 ounces of fluid milk. Palacios ISD is proud to exceed the expectations of the National School Lunch Program.

Student Accounts
Palacios ISD uses a computerized meal account system. Students may deposit money into their meal account for the purchase of meals and extra items. Students will be given an account number and may deposit money in any dollar amount. Checks should be made payable to the Palacios Independent School District. Student account transactions can be printed at your request. Parents may request that a message be placed on their child’s account to prevent students from purchasing extra items such as drinks or snacks. Please contact the Cafeteria Manager for more information.
