It's a tiny school district - 3200 people in the town. I'd guess it's much easier to cook fresh on that scale vs one of the suburban/urban mega-districts? Either way, it is nice to see some places still value nutritious meals for kids.


Right, and my original comments about plenty doing it was sort of based on this idea that there are lots of small districts out there which I assume could be similar no?

So while the number of kids being served healthier from scratch cooked food might be low, the total number or percentage of schools might be a lot higher.

I realize that it's more important to consider the percentage of kids than the percentage of schools, but my initial comment was just a simple take on this as in there are probably a lot of schools that still cook their food.


Dang, my kids district serves 53,000 students. Our food is not scratch built lol.


Pfft, that's still tiny. 180,000 students in my school district.

[Waits patiently for NYC or LA residents to pipe up and show who's really BIG!]
