Children with Special Diet Needs If your child has been identified as having a disability and has special dietary needs, changes can be made to your child’s school breakfast and/or lunch at no extra charge with the proper written medical statement from your physician. A child with a disability will receive the necessary food substitutions if their dietary requirements are supported with a statement signed by a licensed physician. The physician’s statement must identify: The child’s disability An explanation of why the disability restricts the child’s diet The major life activity affected by the disability The food or foods to be omitted from the child’s diet and the food or choice of foods that must be substituted
