Title
C31 - 2023-2024 Food and Nutrition Services Proposed Meal Price Increase.
Description

Increase the District's breakfast and lunch prices by $0.25. Additional revenue is needed to accommodate an increase in costs for food and supplies. In comparison to the previous school year, the Food and Nutrition Services Department incurred an increase of over 1.1 million dollars in food and supplies, equating to a rise in costs of approximately 10%. We continue to see increases as vendors are adjusting pricing to reflect current economic conditions.
