(From Page 1-A)
menu and still have a meal that
meets the federal standards for
good nutrition. The offer vs.
served, option has been available
to older students some choice in
the items being served to them
and to reduce plate waste. As a
result of this change, we are see
ing students choosing the items
they want and consuming those
items. Plate waste has been cut
in half. Reduction in plate waste
should help to keep the cost of
meals at a reasonable level.
The second major change is
the implementation of the a la
carte service in grades 6-12. The
a la carte service allows the stu
dent to buy any item he may
desire without purchasing the
entire plate. This change was
designed to give older students
more flexibility in their food
choices. As a result of this
change, we are seeing many
more students eating some
nutritious food during the lunch
period.
East, Grover, North, and
West schools operate breakfast
programs each school day. The
breakfast program is designed to
provide good nutrition before
the school day begins for those
students who do not receive
breakfast before going to school.
It is only reasonable to expect
better classroom performance
from those students who start
the school day with good nutri
tion either at home or at school.
The child nutrition programs
not only provide good nutrition
for students, but they also con
tribute to the total educational
process. By exposing students to
new foods or foods prepared in a
variety of different ways, the
time spent in the cafeteria
becomes an important part of
the learning process.
The future of the child nutri
tion is uncertain at the federal
level. Funding for child nutrition
programs was reduced by $1.5
billion for the 1982 fiscal year
which begins October 1.
However, the committment to
adequate nutrition for all
students has not changed in the
Kings Mountain District
Schools. The Board of Educa
tion is committed to quality
education for all students. Child
Nutrition is another important
part of that committment.
