Happy Truck Driver Appreciation Week to our @DMschools Food & Nutrition Drivers! Rain or shine, they always make sure food & supplies are getting delivered to our students! So thanksful for all they do!
Some foods should always be washed, but others should be kept far away from the sink! Review these food safety guidelines during National Food Safety Education Month to learn more: sm.eatright.org/WashAllFood #eatright #NFSEM
Some colorful serving lines this week at @DMschools @HoytMS! Making sure our students can eat the rainbow to get lots of good nutrition!
Preschool starts tomorrow, Thursday, September 4, and we can’t wait to see our youngest learners! Tips for a smooth morning or afternoon: label the backpack, dress for play, and bring a big smile. Breakfast and lunch are free for our students at DMPS. See you tomorrow! 🌞
Students at @DMschools @DMEastHigh enjoyed a pizza party for their first Friday of school!
Our staff at @DMschools Garton Elementary have had fun welcoming students back this week!
Happy first day of school! Our food & nutrition staff at @DMschools @GoodrellMS had fun being back with the students!
Growing some awesome produce in some of our @DMschools gardens!
We welcomed our @DMschools head cooks back today, and we're excited to start the new school year!
There's no question Iowa has the best State Fair ... and the best State Fair parade. It was a fun night to march down Grand Avenue in the 2025 @IowaStateFair parade as students, educators, school board members, and the superintendent represented DMPS. flic.kr/s/aHBqjCq15v
Sandwiches can be a quick, economical option for lunch or dinner! Try this grilled chicken salad on whole-wheat bread for #NationalSandwichMonth: sm.eatright.org/ChickSalad #eatright
Our leadership team had some fun getting all back together again this week! We're excited for the 25-26 school year!
An amazing afternoon on Monday as @CaitlinClark22 visits McCombs Middle School! The Caitlin Clark Foundation gave out back-to-school supplies to hundreds of Des Moines students and cut the ribbon on a new basketball court/soccer pitch at the school. youtu.be/ldjTaRqQzjY?si…
We're so grateful for our heroes!
At DMPS we're opening new doors to stronger schools, expanded PreK, and pathways to college and careers. Because the Reimagining Education initiative is about more choices. And together we're building a better future ... for our future. Learn more at reimagine.dmschools.org
We believe every student should graduate with more than just a diploma. With Diploma+, learners leave DMPS with real-world experience, certifications and a future-ready plan. 🚀 Ready to rethink education? Visit: reimagine.dmschools.org

Fun times at a summer site! Paisley, a Dietetics intern, taught students about MyPlate at one of @DMschools summer feeding sites. Her nutrition education lesson included discussing the 5 different food groups & using food models for some hands-on interaction.
Many recipes are designed to feed a crowd. If you live on your own or are preparing meals for a smaller amount of people, use these tips: sm.eatright.org/CookingFor1 #eatright #NationalCulinaryArtsMonth
