Nutrition Report November 2024 .pdf
Background: School Nutrition Services continues serving MPS students healthful and nutritious meals. In the month of September 2024, we served 529,548 breakfasts and 813,820 lunches. School Nutrition Services participates in the USDA's Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program (FFVP). For the 2024-2025 school year, 70 MPS schools were awarded this grant, totaling $1.6 million. MPS follows USDA Guidelines for Breakfast and Lunch Meal Patterns when planning menus. Nutritional requirements are also followed when planning menus. Currently, 57 schools have transitioned from a pre-pack delivery model to a production delivery model. Another 27 schools are being evaluated to transition to a production delivery model for the 2024 - 2025 school year.
