The assessment will:

• Provide a foundation to understand the current state of kitchens and cafeterias at ten schools not slated for renovation in the near future.

• Provide the understanding for recommendations ranging from operational initiatives to equipment replacement.

• Support the school nutritional program provided at these schools, including the ability for them to provide nutrient rich foods in accordance with federal regulations in a way that encourages students to participate.

• Assess problems facing the program, its adaptation, as well as provide insight into ways to enhance operations and ensure safety at each school.

• Address cafeteria capacities needed to serve the growing student populations, and the aesthetics of these environments.

Primar y Findings Years of deferred maintenance create

issues with current code requirements and equipment needs.

Implementation complications aremulti-faceted.

Aesthetic solutions are the least expensive, but impactful.

Facility and equipment solutions will be

more complex and expensive, but

provide future savings and efficiencies.

Operational solutions may require staffing adjustments, ongoing training, and supervisory modifications over an extended period of time.
