Board of Education Hears Plan to Reduce Mobile Nutrition Program Costs

School Nutrition Director Carol Tompkins presented some ideas to Huron Board of Education for cutting costs in the summer nutrition program.

Tompkins says the mobile nutrition program lost a significant amount of money last summer.

Tompkins says she believes reducing the number of stops from three to two would be more efficient and cost-effective.

Since the district is reimbursed for the cost of the meals, the more children the program feeds the better chance it has to break even.
