SCHOOL MEALS ARE GETTING AN UPGRADE!

CONNECTION

USDA

USDA is eager to continue working with industry and school nutrition partners to support schools as they implement the updated standards. FNS Administrator Cindy Long recently vis- ited International Food Solutions (IFS) in Orlando, Fla. to learn more about their challenges and successes navigating regulatory changes. She heard firsthand from Richard Miles, campus din - ing administrator at Seminole County Public Schools, about the variety of ways that IFS products can be used, which gives him options as he navigates updated standards, reduced budgets, and evolving taste buds of their students. For instance, their mandarin chicken is paired with fried rice, a salad, and a taco.
