Nutrition and Health Butler promotes healthy lifestyles through physical education, good nutrition, and health education. We encourage children to eat a good breakfast and lunch that includes a protein, grain, milk, and fruit, and to engage in activities after school that provide movement and exercise. School Lunch Students may bring their own lunch from home or choose one of three menu options at school. The cost of school lunch is $1.75 for students and $3.00 for adults. The reduced rate is $.40, for those who qualify. We want all children to enjoy a good meal during lunchtime. If for any reason you find yourself unable to provide this for your child, please call the office and ask for assistance. Candy, cookies, cupcakes, and other treats are welcome only for celebrating special occasions. All food items must be store bought or prepared by a professional who has a current Food Handler’s Permit. Please talk to your child’s teacher about their class treat policy. Let them know beforehand if you are planning to bring in a special treat. *Student birthday invitations should ​ not ​ be handed out at school. Medication Utah law (53A-11-01) requires that schools can only administer prescription and non-prescription medications under the following guidelines: The request for Giving Medication at School form be filled out and signed by the child’s ​ parent & physician ​ . This pertains to non-prescription as well as prescription drugs. The parent will need to bring the medication to the office to be signed in as needed. The parent/prescriber's statement must be resubmitted at the beginning of each school year and as medication is prescribed or changed. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the main office. Click ​ HERE ​ to view the weekly lunch menu. Click ​ HERE ​ to pay for school lunch online.
