Gilbert Public Schools governing board members had a meal with their meeting Tuesday, courtesy of the district’s Nutrition Services team.
Board members munched away at samples of hamburgers with tater tots, teriyaki chicken with fried rice and dumplings, and stuffed crust sticks with marinara sauce while getting an update on the National School Lunch program.
“We're trying our best to give the kids things that the students would like to eat but also is healthy for them,” Tenney said, “because we could have the healthiest meals in the world, but if they won't eat them, it's not helping fuel them for learning.”
