Child Nutrition 2024 Summer Conference - Menu Planning for Healthy School Meals & Local Wellness Policy - 32977
This class teaches menu planners of the National School Lunch Program (NSLP) and the School Breakfast Program (SBP) how to plan a basic menu, advanced techniques that increase student acceptance and support nutritional requirements and tools that support the menu plan.
**Participants need to bring their school/district’s LWP to the course, or have a digital copy readily available.**
This course is intended to position CEs to meet and exceed all the requirements of the Local Wellness Policy (LWP), while also supporting LEAs in tracking all updates and implementation efforts on an annual basis. They include a LWP template, a guide on the background and requirements for the LWP, an accompanying LWP checklist, and a Triennial Assessment Template to assist your local wellness committee with including all legislative requirements in the policy.
Summer workshops are a valuable tool for continuing education for district staff operating child nutrition programs. There are no restrictions on attendance for district employed staff. Each district will be permitted to take one food service management company (FSMC) employee, who may attend these sessions if accompanied by the district staff person responsible for contract management and oversight. FSMC attendees must pay a participation fee to attend and may not charge the cost to the nonprofit school lunch program or use federal nutrition funds for the expense.
Lunch will be provided.
