Go behind the scenes of our Nutrition Services operation, which now is busier than ever! What’s cooking in the department that offers breakfast and lunch to 17,000 students in Bend, Sunriver and La Pine?

In our latest superintendent’s podcast, Garra Schluter, Director of Nutrition Services for Bend-La Pine Schools, sits down with Dr. Cook for a chat about current trends and challenges in feeding students in our 33 schools.

Their conversation covers the huge move this school year to extend free meals to all students, how many more meals we’re serving now as a result, and the staffing needs in kitchens across the district. (Guess what: We’re hiring! Go to bls.fyi/jobs.)

Garra also describes the extensive “made from scratch” meal prep that happens in our district and reveals the dishes students love the most. Tune in for this fun episode of the Supe’s On! Podcast.
