3. PRESENTATIONS: Nancy Younglove, School Lunch Ma

nager, spoke to the Board about the Fresh

Fruits and Vegetables Program. The program is funded by a grant to NY state

elementary or secondary schools who meet the criteria of having at least 50%

of its students eligible for free or reduced price meals. North Rose Elementary

school met the criteria, and it was felt that students at this age level would be

impacted the most by the educational materials that will be provided, and by

forming healthier eating habits at this age. The goals of the program are to

provide healthy food choices, expand the variety of fruits and vegetables a

child experiences, increase fruit and vegetable consumption, make a difference

to children’s diets, and encourage nutritious snacking. The District will be

working with local farms and distributing companies to bring the products into

the school along with educational materials. The high school Hospitality and

Marketing Business Leadership students will be involved by distributing the

fresh fruits and vegetables to the students as part of their curriculum, and by

“marketing” the fresh fruits and vegetables through minidemonstrations and

activities with the elementary students. Nutrition lessons through the science

curriculum will be expanded and hopefully the science program will include

gardening, which will produce fresh vegetables and fruits that can be used in

the program. Students in grades 35 will receive a

snack every instructional q 0.12 0 0 0.12 0 0 cm /R7 gs 0 0 0 RG 0 0 0 rg q 8.33333 0 0 8.33333 0 0 cm BT /R9 12 Tf 0.99809 0 0 1 50.3995 52.8 Tm [(
