SCHOOL LUNCH SUCCESS STORY
For our school lunch program we are serving more turkey and chicken products. We are also using whole grain breads and pizza crusts. The children think it is very good. We are trying to keep birthday parties to once a month and having more fruits decorated for parties instead of cakes. We also switched to plastic bottle milk which the kids really like and we have seen them drinking all of their milk and also taking 2 bottles instead of just one.
