June 3—Due to changes in federal law, the South Windsor (Conn.) Public School district’s Food Service Department has seen a significant decline in sales and a loss in revenue, according to a school official.
Director of Finance and Operations Chris Chemerka said at the May 28 Board of Education meeting that there has been a 21 percent decline in sales this year.
In a memorandum to Superintendent of Schools Dr. Kate Carter, Chemerka said that, as a result of the losses, the Food Services Department would not be able to make a $160,000 health care contribution for its employees that was budgeted for this year.
