Board keeps meal prices, approves federal lunch participation and procurement plan
Summary
The board approved continued participation in the federal school lunch program for 2627, kept meal prices unchanged from the prior year, and approved the required food service procurement plan.
The board voted to continue the district's participation in the federal school lunch program for the 2627 school year after staff explained that participation allows the district to receive federal reimbursements when eligible students receive meals. "The only way that works is that we sign those papers if we approve of this," the staff member said while recommending continued participation.
The board also approved keeping meal prices the same as the prior year and adopted the annual food service procurement plan required by law. Motions to approve each item were moved and seconded and passed; staff noted that the district participates in a cooperative purchasing arrangement for bulk purchases of food and milk.
