Students create healthy lunch for peers

The elementary schoolers are working with foodservice staff to craft a nutritious meal for all 6,800 students in their district.

The truck, which will travel through the district four days a week, recently took a test run.

Chefs developed vegetarian, vegan and allergen-free dishes now being considered as campus offerings.

The competition, sanctioned by the American Culinary Federation, also gives the school a platform to promote its dining services.

Nearly 180 meals were served throughout the district on Tuesday.

If enough of the lunches are sold during a trial run, organic meals will become a permanent weekly fixture.

The sandwiches, created for a championship game, are topped with ingredients signature to the teams’ hometowns.

The directors received the honor for spurring creative initiatives in K-12 foodservice.

To reduce waste, straws will be removed from students’ direct access at retail dining locations.
