 Yes, I'm Frank Reeves, I'm the superintendent of schools here in East Grand School District in Granville, Colorado. It's vitally important to have a salad bar in our district, especially K-12, and not just at the middle and high school level, where generally those kids will start eating healthy, but to really start that with our younger kids and give them options of healthy foods, it's just fantastic. I think once kids have choices with healthy foods, they will choose certain healthy foods. Well, the salad bar, a little history, we have with our district health advisory council, we've worked really hard with food service to get salad bars in every school. Hi, my name's Abby and I go to Granby Elementary. I think it's great because at my old school I had one and I didn't think that anyone else would have one, so I was really surprised. My favorite item is the vegetables and probably the carrots. My name is Krista McGwan, I am food service director at East Grand School District. Our goals include highlighting local Colorado produce on our salad bar and also holding Make Your Plate a Rainbow Day, where kids fill their plate with each color of the rainbow with fruits and vegetables. We also would like to hold monthly taste testings of seasonal items. There's a lot of benefits to schools offering salad bars to students both on the school side and on the student side. From the school standpoint it offers them a lot of flexibility when menu planning. When serving students, it offers them the flexibility to just give them more options and that definitely translates into the student side as well. Kids love options and I think choice is a big focus when putting together school food programs now. At the end of the day, for me personally, I think the most important benefit of offering salad bars is establishing healthy and helpful eating habits that students will carry with them throughout the rest of their lives.
