VIII. Discussion/Action: Approve the Summer Food Program Waiver Notice to the School Health Advisory Committee.
Presenter:
Dr. Taylor
Description:
Elkhart I.S.D. received notice from the Texas Department of Agriculture that, due to the percentage of students eligible to participate in the National Free and Reduced Meal Program, we re required to offer a minimum 30-day summer nutrition program. If the district intends to apply for a waiver from this program requirement, the board of trustees must submit a letter to the School Health Advisory Committee by November 30, 2012. The letter is presented this evening for your approval and signature.
It is anticipated that the cost of the Summer Nutrition Program, and other program requirements, will present a substantial financial burden to the district with very limited anticipated benefit to the children in our district boundaries. Recommendation: Approve the submission of the waiver to the District School Health Advisory Committee. |
