III. SY22 Food Service - Self Op Proposal

A.

Patachou

Matthew From Patachou Foundation:
Main focus on the foundation is alleviation of childhood hunger.
Trajectory is to get into partnerships with schools to provide high quality meals and food/nutrition education.
School breakfast and lunch are the best way to address childhood hunger.
Goal to Partner with CCP instead of being a Vendor.
CCP would be a self-op kitchen instead of using another food service management company. CCP would own all parts of the process, utilizing Patachou to assist with training, menus, prep, etc.
Goals:
-Cafeteria overhaul (becoming a from-scratch kitchen). Equipment, training, menu planning, space renovation.
-Classroom food literacy (cafeteria is a classroom. When scholars are eating, they should also be learning about food and nutrition). This also will go back into the regular classrooms with curriculum for teachers that are aligned to state standards. How does food get from Farm to Fork?
-Community Building- school takes ownership of the wellness committee with staff and parents to make policy related to scholar health within the school.
-Partner with IU to determine if outcomes are being reached based on changes made to food program.
