Summary
The board approved a one-year food-service management contract with The Nutrition Group for July 1, 2024–June 30, 2025 (anticipated guaranteed profit $120,000) and heard that the district won a Breakfast Expansion Grant of about $10,000 to buy a heater/cooler for the high school.
The Minersville Area Board of Education voted to contract with The Nutrition Group (TNG) for full food-service management effective July 1, 2024, through June 30, 2025, a one-year agreement that the board may renew by mutual agreement for up to four additional one-year terms. The contract includes an anticipated guaranteed profit of $120,000 for the vendor and was approved on a roll-call vote.
Representatives from TNG thanked the district and announced the district received a Breakfast Expansion Grant of approximately $10,000. Mitchell Milbrand told the board that grant funds will be used to purchase a heater/cooler for the high school and noted that, with the district listed as a CEP school for 2023–24, claim rates rose from 80% to 91% during the school year. The board recorded receipt of food-service RFPs before approving the contract.
The contract approval motion (moved by James T. Croley, II; seconded by Cynthia Lubinsky) carried on a roll-call vote of members present. The contract includes vendor reporting and a one-year initial term with optional renewals; the minutes did not list a contract number or further procurement documentation in the record. The Nutrition Group is listed in the minutes as based in Irwin, Pennsylvania.
