Questions & Answers

1. How would you promote good nutrition in your schools?

Great Valley has an exemplary food service system. However, recent efforts by the federal government, which are intended to reduce the incidence of obesity, have gone too far and have unintended consequences for many districts -- including ours. Children are hungry and parents are angry about rising food costs; obesity is not being treated because children are finding alternative sources of food outside the program. We have lost local control due to these federal mandates which are enforced by the state. The best way to improve this situation is to work with other districts to voice our opposition to federal micromanagement.
