THE GOAL is providing a good, lunch at a reasonable cost. Elementary students will pay 70 cents again next year; junior high, 80 and high schoolers 90 cents for a hot lunch. In the elementaries, students are given one basic meal choice each day, although for the first time this past year, they joined their older counterparts in offer versus serve. That means students could refuee one-tw- o items, such as dessert or vegetable. They still pay the 70 cents but shouldnt waste as much if they dont have to take it.

And for the or teachers, co-e- d theres chef salad to hoot. A VETERAN of many years be- hind the serving line, Mrs. Reeves emphasizes fresh is best, giving the most in nutrients and taste. For that reason, all schools have their own kitchens and everythings made from scratch. Its not uncommon to enter a school around 10:30 a.m. and smell fresh bread or rolls baking or a tur- key roasting, for example. To reach that end, the districts con 180 days.
