EDIBLE EDUCATION
PONDER
We use the phrase “making the cafeteria an ex- tension of the classroom” in many of our training programs. Consider what lessons are important and reflect a commitment to your mission. Do you strive to help teach students about the or- igins of the produce you offer with a focus on the local and healthy harvest of the month offer - ings? Do you want to help students feel includ- ed regardless of their race, religion, or ethnicity with quality global on-trend flavors? Consider using these ICN tools to gather your team and discuss what can inspire your path to success in food and nutrition education!
LEARN
How does your program rate? Use this industry standard “Smarter Lunchroom Scorecard” to help gauge where you are and where you might implement strategies to improve your program. Lunchroom atmosphere plays a large role in the perception of your program - remember you never get a second chance to make a first im - pression. This tool can become a part of your annual assessment and help guide a strategic vision for improvements to level up your vibe! From the archives of Smarter Lunchroom his- tory, this oldie but goodie was one of the first guiding documents to help us reimagine how we might encourage healthy choices simply by the atmosphere we present to students! The oppor- tunities abound for us to be a foundational part of early education and inform by modeling and a commitment to serve and teach.
