Board vice president Scott M. Schmerelson said it is important to approve programs that ensure healthy and safe environments while increasing student capacity for learning and success.
“These well-deserved upgrades to our school cafeteria kitchens will assist us in elevating school nutrition with fresh and healthy options,” Schmerelson said. “I thank our local taxpayers for supporting Measure RR and making this possible. It is about time that we improved the mitigation of heat in our cafeterias. Our food service workers deserve better.”
