Six elementary schools in the Madison Metropolitan School District will begin receiving a choice of entrees for lunch in a new pilot program designed to look at how to better meet student nutritional needs. As a parent of a vegetarian, I think this is a fantastic idea since the great majority of lunches are meat-based and there currently is no other option besides sending a lunch from home. It is also commendable that more sugary foods (chocolate milk, etc.) are being taken of the school district's menu.
