Question

What needs are not being met by a slow-moving or busy line at a school cafeteria? Identify the people, processes, and technologies that play a role in the issue you identified.

Answer 1

When you work in a School Lunch program, you’re bound to face challenges that pop up seemingly out of nowhere. That’s just the nature of serving hundreds or even thousands of students each day.

But, when you keep encountering the same Child Nutrition program problems, over and over, day after day, it’s likely more than just a coincidence.

Instead, there probably are bigger issues causing these problems.

The bad news is that it often can be unclear what these bigger issues are, which makes fixing them almost impossible.

The good news? We at Harris School Nutrition Solutions have spent thirty years working with the men and women of Child Nutrition programs all across the U.S., helping to diagnose and solve their School Lunch problems.

So, we figured we’d share with you some of the common school lunch-line challenges we’ve seen over the years, the real issues behind those challenges, and of course the solutions to both.
