Welcome to the Rosemead School District Nutrition & Wellness Department
Serving Fresh, Nutritious Food Daily!
In our kitchens, flavor is our top priority. We understand food, and we’re dedicated to serving the best on every spork—delicious, locally sourced meals that satisfy both taste buds and nutritional needs. And all of this is done while navigating the complexities of state and federal requirements, no small feat. Together, we work to nourish and support our students.
