There is a national interest in healthy eating - particularly in schools. Parents are bombarded with this message and they inevitably look to their schools to see if their kids are getting the correct nutrition.
Does your program measure up? Chances are it already does. Chances are too, that there may be items on your menu or in your cafeteria that could be improved upon as well.
Do you feel pressure to defend your food program from a nutritional perspective? How do you respond to public outcry about child nutrition? As school meal operators, your day is consumed with logistical concerns of the operation often overshadowing the need for marketing your program and addressing the perceptions (and misperceptions) of your department.
Come to this workshop to learn how to ensure that your program is in fact providing the right nutritional content, while still providing tasty and popular food. You’ll learn menu development that encompasses the correct standards in a cost effective and easy manner.
You’ll also learn how to ensure the message gets out about the quality of your food program, along with joining the revolution to lead our children down the healthy choice path.
