Parents and Caregivers: Thank you for your response to our first survey. Due to your responses we can make necessary adjustments to our Grab & Go program. We had an overwhelming majority of parents wanting meal bundles for 3 days reducing pick up to once a week instead of three times a week. We also put the grab and go menu option on Park and Taylor’s October menu and implemented more variety. We would like your opinion on one more item; timing of meal bundle pick up. If you have any other suggestion or concerns please email Alaina Melendez, Director of Food Services at amelendez@columbiabsd.org.
Please fill out the survey by Thursday, September 24th.
