Concession Stand to Offer Healthier Choices
June 25, 2010
FCCLA chapter members Alex Thornburgh, Emalee McClurg and Taryn Murray brought a recommendation to the Board of Education to offer healthier concession stand options for Jefferson West concession stands. The following paragraph has been added to the Local Wellness Policy as a result of the students' efforts.
"It is recommended that all USD 340 concession stands carry at least one healthy option. This recommendation is to encourage patrons to eat healthier and for concession stand operators to be aware of options they are providing to the public for purchase. Concession stand operators should refer to the Kansas Model Wellness Policy Guideline* when selecting healthy options."
