IT’S NATIONAL SCHOOL LUNCH WEEK!
Learning takes energy, and a healthy school lunch helps give students the fuel they need to focus, learn and grow. Observed since 1962, National School Lunch Week highlights the important role school meals play in supporting student health, learning and success.
Across Wakulla County Schools, we continue to see just how important that access is. During the 2025–2026 school year, participation increased by 17,784 breakfasts and 58,436 lunches — more than 76,000 additional meals served across the district.
This year, meals are available to every WCS student at no cost, helping ensure students can come to the table, get what they need and return to class ready to learn.
This National School Lunch Week, we celebrate the important connection between good nutrition, student well-being and success in the classroom

HAPPY NATIONAL PRINCIPALS MONTH!
October gives us a special opportunity to celebrate the school leaders who set the tone, support their teachers and staff, encourage their students and help make each of our schools a place where kids can learn and grow.
Throughout the month, our schools will be sharing a little more about the principals who lead them each day.
We’re grateful for their leadership, their steady presence and the many ways they serve our students, families and school communities.
