Drafting a Resolution

You will be happy to hear that there are many passionate and informed people concerned about this issue. Only one of the challenges we face in bringing healthier, freshly prepared food to our kids' lunchrooms will be coming to a consensus as to how to prioritize requests and formulate proposals. By keeping in mind where we are starting from in terms of staff, facilities and suppliers we can keep working toward the very highest standards and start with achievable positive results.

At the last HSCC Steering Committee meeting we developed an outline for a resolution to be presented to the board. This resolution will be an initial request in quantifiable terms I hope all involved can agree are a good first step. 

Stay tuned!
