USDA Smart Snacks Standards
What are smart snacks?
Smart snacks are nutrition standards established by the USDA as part of the healthy, hungry free kids act of 2010 and became effective July 1, 2014. The standards apply to all foods sold and served on school campuses during the school day.
What is the definition of the school day?
The USDA defines the school day as the period from midnight the night before, to 30 minutes after the end of the official school day.
What is the definition of the school campus?
The USDA defines the school campus as all areas of the property under the jurisdiction of the school that are accessible to students during the school day.
What campus events are impacted by smart snacks standards?
The standards pertain to all campus food sales and foods distributed at campus events during the defined school day. Individual classroom parties, evening, weekend events are excluded. Classroom parties are defined as a party confined to a single classroom. Common areas (libraries, cafeterias, auditoriums, gymnasiums, and fields) are not considered a single classroom.
