COST OF SCHOOL LUNCH INCREASE
 |
Starting
next year, Williamson County students will see a slight
increase in the cost of school lunch. The price per
lunch will go up 25-cents.
For
elementary schools, the cost of lunch will go from the current price
of $2.25 to the new price of $2.50. Middle and high
school students will also see a 25-cent increase, pushing
the cost of their lunch to $2.75.

Williamson
County Schools Child Nutrition Program Director James
Griffith says the increase is necessary considering
the rising cost of fuel and food. "Milk alone has gone
up 30 percent since last year," said Griffith. "We
have also seen an increase in flour and oils, so we expect to
see an increase in the price of bread this year."
Although the price will go up,
students can expect the same great taste and quality food
they've come to expect at Williamson County schools.
The Child Nutrition Department goes to great lengths to
ensure each student has access to a healthy selection of
lean meats, fruits and vegetables daily. |
