Schools Celebrate National School Lunch Week (10-09-2009)
|
In observance of National School Lunch Week, St. Tammany public school cafeterias hosted special programs and decorations along with serving nutritious meals to students and visitors October 12 - 16. The theme of the week this year was “All Star School Lunch.”
The School Board passed a resolution October 8 recognizing the event and the School System’s award-winning Food Service Program. Special appreciation was given to the many Student Nutrition Advisory Councils, student groups who help food service personnel plan and present attractive and nutritious menus throughout the year.
School Board members and Central Office administrators visited the schools during National School Lunch Week to meet with the students and cafeteria employees, joining many parents who also visited the schools during the event.
The Food Service staff serves over 34,000 meals daily, 8,823 of those being breakfast and the remaining 25,116 being lunches.
In announcing National School Food Service week, Deputy Superintendent Trey Folse commended Sylvia Dunn, Supervisor of the Food Service Department, her cafeteria managers, and lunchroom technicians.
