Administration meetings, board agendas, work of committees, can now all support the plan. I feel labeling items, when possible, to how our work and decisions connect to plan is essential.

10.4. Partnership with St. Anne's for Food Service.
Presenter:
Dr. Marlene Johnson
Description:
St. Anne's principal, Diane Lee is without a Food Service employee and has reached out to the District in hopes of collaborating with us to feed the St. Anne's students. Below is information received from A'Viands , Carmon Bolender after a meeting held with Dr. Johnson, Diane Lee, Ky Battern and A'Viands representatives.
A'Viands recommends that LSH enter into a Vended Meals contract with St. Anne’s, to provide them NSLP compliant, prepared lunch meals, on a daily basis. Attached is the MDE approved template for this agreement. A'Viands suggests that LSH charge St. Anne’s $3.00 per meal. Each meal would include all necessary entrée and side components, required to make an NSLP compliant lunch, and still be tasty and appealing to the students. Each meal would also include a milk. A'Viands proposes that St. Anne’s staff pick up these meals each day, from the LSH high school kitchen. St. Anne’s team members would then return to their school, and serve these meals to their students. A’viands staff would train and support the St. Anne’s staff in efficient and effective ways to do this lunch service. A'Viands proposes that St. Anne’s order the number of meals they would like served, a week at a time. Meaning that they order for each day of the following week. A'Viands proposes that A’viands will track and record the number of meals prepared for St. Anne’s by day and month, and present this information to LSH, for simple invoices created by LSH and given to St. Anne’s. A'Viands proposes that A’viands will charge LSH, $2.50 per St. Anne’s meal, on an invoice separate from the regular program invoice. The LSH student nutrition program overseen by A’viands, will make all purchases, and staff all labor, necessary for the production of these meals. We propose that A’viands will credit the invoice for the LSH student nutrition program, for each St. Anne’s meal delivered, in the following amounts:
A'Viands proposes that St. Anne’s grant permission for their USDA commodities order shipments to be delivered to LSH, for use in reducing the cost of their student nutrition program. A'Viands proposes that LSH credit St. Anne’s for the value of commodities received on their behalf. A'Viands proposes that A’viands staff will assist St. Anne’s staff, in the preparation of the annual NSLP application, and in the preparation of their monthly claims submission, and commodity order. St. Anne’s staff will need to do the final review, approval, and submission of these items as they occur. LSH may elect to additionally bill St. Anne’s for administrative support given to various tasks related to their student nutrition program, such as the processing of St. Anne’s students free and reduced lunch applications.
