Byron board renews food‑service contract with Tahir; presentation on high‑school program set for April 7
Summary
Trustees approved renewal of the district's food‑service management contract with Tahir for 2025–26 and scheduled an April 7 presentation on the high‑school nutrition program and options for participation in federal programs.
The Byron Public Schools board voted to renew its food‑service management contract with Tahir for the 2025–26 school year and scheduled a presentation on the high‑school nutrition program for April 7.
Superintendent (Superintendent) reminded trustees that the district lists its food‑service manager annually with the state and noted the district remains under a five‑year contract with Tahir. He said the board will hear a presentation from the high‑school principal and Tahir’s food‑service director on April 7 to review the high‑school program and community questions about participation in federal nutrition programs.
Board members asked practical questions about the contract: Tahir employs food‑service staff and purchases ingredients, and the superintendent said Tahir’s contract includes annual percentage increases (the next-year increase noted as 3.1% in the presentation). The superintendent said the contract renewal is a routine annual action and that the board will not vote on operational decisions the night of the presentation.
A motion to renew the food‑service contract with Tahir was made, seconded and carried by voice vote.
Next steps: April 7 presentation will provide details for board discussion and any future action; staff will share presentation materials and public viewers can watch the recorded presentation if unable to attend.
