How to Tell the School Nutrition Story in a Post COVID World It has always been important to share how school meals support academic success and feed the future. Now it is essential for your communities to understand the critical importance of feeding children well every day and during emergencies. Families want to know more about your program than ever before -- and you are the best person to share the best news about your program. Dayle will explore three secrets to telling your program's story so that you can maximize customer satisfaction and student participation.  Wednesday, October 27th•1:30pm  https://schoolmealsthatrock.org/
