This book was released on 2010-02-16 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ensuring that the food provided to children in schools is consistent with current dietary recommendations is an important national focus. Various laws and regulations govern the operation of school meal programs. In 1995, Nutrition Standards and Meal Requirements were put in place to ensure that all meals offered would be high in nutritional quality. School Meals reviews and provides recommendations to update the nutrition standard and the meal requirements for the National School Breakfast and Lunch Programs. The recommendations reflect new developments in nutrition science, increase the availability of key food groups in the school meal programs, and allow these programs to better meet the nutritional needs of children, foster healthy eating habits, and safeguard children's health. School Meals sets standards for menu planning that focus on food groups, calories, saturated fat, and sodium and that incorporate Dietary Guidelines for Americans and the Dietary Reference Intakes. This book will be used as a guide for school food authorities, food producers, policy leaders, state/local governments, and parents.
Download or read book School Breakfast Program written by Judi Bartfeld and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2010-02 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Participation in the School Breakfast Program (SBP) is much less common than participation in the Nat. School Lunch Program, even among children with access to both programs. This report examines participation in the SBP among 3rd grade public school students, as well as the impacts of the program on food insecurity and children's risk of skipping breakfast. Students are more likely to participate when breakfast is served in the classroom, when time available for breakfast in school is longer, and when they come from lower income or time-constrained households. Children with access to the SBP are more likely to eat breakfast in the morning and that program access may enhance food security among families at the margin of food insecurity. Illus.

Download or read book The School Breakfast Program in New York City Public Schools written by and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through the School Breakfast Program, New York City can ensure that over one million public school children receive a healthy breakfast at the start of each day. This task is critical, not only because breakfast is the most important meal of the day, but also because about 725,000 of New York City's public school children come from households with incomes low enough to qualify them for free or reduced-price meals. Despite these facts, New York City's school breakfast participation rate remains low. The number of children who participate in school breakfast can, however, be markedly increased through both the expansion of the BIC program and parental engagement. Also, further study about opinions of, and experiences with, BIC can provide insight into how to strengthen and expand this successful program, and ultimately school breakfast participation. Similarly, gathering information about New York City students' breakfast habits - the what, where, and why of their breakfasts - will facilitate a better understanding of the choices and needs of New York City's public school children and their families, which can ultimately help identify additional ways to use school-based programs and initiatives to address hunger and improve child nutrition. Overall, these steps present a significant opportunity to contribute to the food security and well-being of so many of New York City's children.

Download or read book Nutrition Standards for Foods in Schools written by Committee on Nutrition Standards for Foods in Schools and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2007-08-28 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Food choices and eating habits are learned from many sources. The school environment plays a significant role in teaching and modeling health behaviors. For some children, foods consumed at school can provide a major portion of their daily nutrient intake. Foods and beverages consumed at school can come from two major sources: (1) Federally funded programs that include the National School Lunch Program (NSLP), the School Breakfast Program (SBP), and after-school snacks and (2) competitive sources that include vending machines, "a la carte" sales in the school cafeteria, or school stores and snack bars. Foods and beverages sold at school outside of the federally reimbursable school nutrition programs are referred to as competitive foods because they compete with the traditional school lunch as a nutrition source. There are important concerns about the contribution of nutrients and total calories from competitive foods to the daily diets of school-age children and adolescents. Nutrition Standards for Foods in Schools offers both reviews and recommendations about appropriate nutrition standards and guidance for the sale, content, and consumption of foods and beverages at school, with attention given to foods and beverages offered in competition with federally reimbursable meals and snacks. It is sure to be an invaluable resource to parents, federal and state government agencies, educators and schools, health care professionals, food manufacturers, industry trade groups, media, and those involved in consumer advocacy.
Download or read book School Lunch Politics written by Susan Levine and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2011-11-21 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whether kids love or hate the food served there, the American school lunchroom is the stage for one of the most popular yet flawed social welfare programs in our nation's history. School Lunch Politics covers this complex and fascinating part of American culture, from its origins in early twentieth-century nutrition science, through the establishment of the National School Lunch Program in 1946, to the transformation of school meals into a poverty program during the 1970s and 1980s. Susan Levine investigates the politics and culture of food; most specifically, who decides what American children should be eating, what policies develop from those decisions, and how these policies might be better implemented. Even now, the school lunch program remains problematic, a juggling act between modern beliefs about food, nutrition science, and public welfare. Levine points to the program menus' dependence on agricultural surplus commodities more than on children's nutritional needs, and she discusses the political policy barriers that have limited the number of children receiving meals and which children were served. But she also shows why the school lunch program has outlasted almost every other twentieth-century federal welfare initiative. In the midst of privatization, federal budget cuts, and suspect nutritional guidelines where even ketchup might be categorized as a vegetable, the program remains popular and feeds children who would otherwise go hungry. As politicians and the media talk about a national obesity epidemic, School Lunch Politics is a timely arrival to the food policy debates shaping American health, welfare, and equality.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The School Breakfast Program is a federally assisted meal program operating in public and nonprofit private schools and residential child care institutions. It began as a pilot project in 1966, and was made permanent in 1975. The School Breakfast Program is administered at the Federal level by the Food and Nutrition Service. At the State level, the program is usually administered by State education agencies, which operate the program through agreements with local school food authorities in more than 87,000 schools and institutions. This paper discusses the following: (1) how the program works; (2) the nutritional requirements for school breakfasts; (3) how children may qualify for free and reduced price breakfasts; (4) the reimbursement schools get; (5) the other support schools get from the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA); (6) the number of children that have been served over the years; and (7) the cost of the program.
