School Lunch Hero 2021
Who has the smarts to plan nutritious meals, the chops to manage perishable inventory and the patience to slice hundreds of oranges in a single day? Who stays vigilant about food safety while feeding breakfast and lunch to hundreds of children — and then gets up to do it all again tomorrow?
Superheroes often hide in plain sight. That’s why we are asking Florida schools to bring their heroic school nutrition professionals into the spotlight for a week of celebration during the first week of May.
The celebration will conclude on national School Lunch Hero Day on May 7, 2021.
School nutrition professionals are the champions of nutrition. It’s time to thank them for saving the day, one meal at a time.
Is there a school lunch hero at your Florida school? Tell us about their superpower! Nominate them to become the 2021 Florida School Lunch Hero.
