Improving Child Nutrition
Better nutrition of our K12 students makes for greater student achievement. Especially with the renewed debate on school lunch debt, it’s important to take a good look at our students’ nutrition.
Education Week recognizes Bertrand Weber from Minneapolis public schools as a 2014 Leader To Learn From for improving child nutrition. Having faced the challenge of completely converting a school-based food experience for students, Weber is revolutionizing student nutrition in this sizable school district. He’s even fully outfitted a food truck to deliver free breakfast and lunch to kids 18 and younger in four impoverished neighborhoods in Minneapolis and made reduced price meals available to parents.
Meet Bertrand at our Leaders To Learn From event on April 1st to get your questions answered about his contributions to Minneapolis’ school meal programs: http://bit.ly/LTLF14Register
