In this story

What the division requires

PCS says disability-related meal modifications are handled case by case using its Dietary Modification Medical Statement Form dated May 2026. The healthcare professional can be a licensed physician, physician assistant, nurse practitioner or registered dietitian.

Completed forms go to the school nurse or the School Nutrition office. The division says parents must notify School Nutrition at the beginning of each school year to continue a modified menu.

Do not rely on a verbal request

A conversation with cafeteria staff can help, but it does not replace the required medical form for a disability-related modification.

  • Use the current May 2026 form.
  • Return it through the school nurse or official fax route.
  • Renew the continuation request at the start of each school year.
