The document summarizes the food service program for PDC Public Schools. It serves around 130,000 lunches and 27,000 breakfasts per year across multiple schools. The program provides free, reduced, and paid meals that meet nutrition standards. It operates at roughly break-even financially with support from federal and state reimbursements. Plans for next year include expanding salad bar options and cafeteria space.
