HCPSS students and their families can now view menus and nutrition and allergen information for meals served in all HCPSS schools through Nutrislice, a website and free smartphone app.
This upgrade to school menus benefits school health professionals and parents who can easily access nutritional information and make informed choices for their child’s nutrition.

What is a school-based health or wellness center?
A School-based Wellness Center is similar to a doctor’s office, but located inside a school or on a school campus. This site is able to provide acute health care services to children through the use of telemedicine technology during the school day. All services require written consent from parents and/or guardians.
Telemedicine provides a two-way connection between student and nurse at school and a doctor at another location. The connection is made using a video link. Special equipment is used to allow the doctor to examine the student’s ears, throat, skin, eyes and listen to lungs.
