I know you’re aware of, and likely involved in, the many challenges facing school foodservice as students head back to school this year—everything from supply chain issues to Covid-19 concerns. Challenges include staffing issues, social distancing, site shutdowns, and limited time for meal service. . . . E S Foods can offer a key solution to many of these challenges: Pre-Packaged Meals.

Schools across the nation are finding innovative ways to reach more students in their respective communities. . . .Instead of having drive-up lines at the schools, William Floyd School District and its food service partner, Aramark, relied on school transportation to deliver meals directly to the students’ families. Using 42 school buses running their regular routes, the school was able to deliver boxes, making it convenient for the families.

We were pleased that there was so much interest in our Afterschool Meals CACFP (Children and Adult Care Food Programs) Webinar held last week. Food service directors from across the country tuned in to hear tips on how to implement a successful Afterschool Meal program. I especially want to thank our featured speakers: Alexandra Molina, M.S., Director, McAllen ISD in Texas, and Sandra Kemp, Executive Director of Food and Nutrition at Albuquerque Public Schools in New Mexico.
