Cafeteria
Food Service Director
Welcome to the Dauphin County Technical School Cafeteria Website, where we continue to strive for a healthy and nutritious Food Court for our students to make good choices for their meals.
Currently, we have Special Meal Stations (main meal menu is available weekly online); pizza bar station, soup and salad bar, a la carte grill, specialty premade boxed salads, sub and wrap bar, hot and cold fruit and veggie bar. Students may choose 1 cup of fruit and 1 cup of vegetable to any lunch of their choosing.
Dauphin County Technical School’s Cafeteria is reviewed every 3 years by Pennsylvania Department of Education (PDE). For results of our review please go to PDE’s website.
Our Mission is to continually develop a responsive, quality-driven Food Services Program consistently providing a variety of foods in a pleasant environment and promoting good eating habits through an efficient, customer-focused approach.
We welcome input from the community on the development, review, implementation, and update of the school wellness policy. Please contact Denise Green at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. if you are interested in getting involved.
