AN INSIDE LOOK
School Lunch Ain't What It Used to Be
Healthier is obviously better, but columnist rues the heavily regulated school meal program.
It’s a good thing Norton’s school system is now going to be serving healthier lunches. I know it is for the best, will make for healthier kids, and is a smart thing to do. I also understand it is part of following the new state and federal guidelines. There are a lot of reasons why it is a good idea.
