Free Meals for All Students

Elyria Schools Foodservice Director, Lauryn Smith, and new Executive Chef, Alex Hrvatin, both of Aramark, join us on Petey Podcast to talk school food and nutrition. Aramark recently announced that all students in Elyria City School District are now eligible for free school meals through the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) program of the Ohio Department of Education and Workforce. Since making the announcement, participation in the school meal program has seen a big bump, and Lauryn and Alex couldn't be happier. Take a listen to how this program is working, and catch up on other culinary news from the central kitchen of Elyria Schools!

It's a great day to be a Pioneer! Thanks for listening. Find Elyria Schools on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and YouTube!
