After meeting with West Roxbury Academy cafeteria managers Carol Melanson and supervisor Margie Pietroski, it looks like we might be in luck! Both ladies are super enthusiastic about the possibility of opening a salad bar. They're even open to meeting with students each month about deciding what kinds of foods should go on, as well as cultural food themes!
They're concerned, however, about students taking both a salad bar as an entree and a hot lunch (ie taking two for one), as well as general discipline issues.
To tackle this tricky issue, we're brainstorming how to build demand and responsibility for the salad bar by building Healthy Lunch Champions. A Healthy Lunch Champion is a student who helps serve and monitor the salad bar and gets his/her lunch for free! Healthy Lunch Champions are also eligible to meet with Carol as a part of the salad bar planning team.
Have something to say or want to be included in the process? Write a comment on the "Get Your Voice Heard" page or email us at sociedadlatinayco@gmail.com.
We will also be posting a sign up in the cafeteria this Friday, January 20!
