Northeast Nodaway

The Northeast Nodaway R-V School Board raised lunch prices during its regular meeting May 18.

Lunchtime Solutions will be providing the food service during the 2017-18 school year. They will no longer offer Pizza Hut pizza, but will offer fresh-made pizza instead, which was taste-tested by Maryville students.

The upcoming year will also see the implementation of the Fusion Food program. Once a month, a chef from the Lunchtime Solutions corporate office will visit and prepare fresh foods for the students while they watch. They also plan to increase the selection of Mrs. Dash seasonings offered to students who wish to season their food.

The board approved increasing the lunch prices by 10¢ and raising breakfast 5¢. Elementary breakfast will be $1.40 and lunch $2.40. High school breakfast will be $1.65 and lunch, $2.65.
