Just in case any one is interested, here is the link to some of the information I found regarding healthy school lunch programs, specifically the one in Wisconsin. This is the alternative school that I talked about in class where Natural Ovens Bakery took over the lunch program and transformed the school. Check it out at: http://nutrition.about.com/od/schoollunches/fr/naturalovens.htm

I truly believe that adding healthy food choices is an important part of creating a school environment that is supportive and caring to the whole individual. There is so much documentation linking proper eating to better behavior and performance. Yet it seems to me we choose to ignore what we know, opting instead for easier, more popular choices.
