Students from every school in the district have the opportunity to let their voice be heard when it comes to school meals for next year and beyond. The district???s annual ???Taste of 500??? food tasting fair allows students to taste-test possible new menu items and provide their feedback.
This year???s event is scheduled for Thursday, March 31 at F.L. Schlagle High School. There will be two sessions:
Noon to 1:45 p.m. for students

If you have any questions regarding this, please contact Kristen Scott.
