We made posters, sent flyers home with students and announcements were made over P.A. kgibson Special prize trays daily- give away extra la carte items each day. Posters and flyers to students and parents. In service meetings with teachers and also with the foodservice staff are important. Along with those mentioned by Bob. We must not just offer the same thing everyday.
Students get tired of the same thing.
You must be able to come up with a variety. We provided a free School Breakfast to the faculty the week before we started a program and a free breakfast to every student the first day of the breakfast program. Offering breakfast at no charge is the easiest thing to do if you are doing an alternate feeding method, but that isn't feasible for all districts. You can use the meal ticket system where students prepay for their meals in the cafeteria. We have the teachers mark the roll as to whether or not the student eats, and then we compile it into the proper category so that it can be claimed.
