Recently, our CCS Nutrition Team brought a “Taste of Calhoun” to a few Calhoun Elementary classes, giving students the chance to try out some new menu options like beef tacos, chicken tacos, pupusas, white chicken chili, turkey nuggets, and two kinds of taco meat. With thumbs up, smiles, and honest feedback, students had a blast taste-testing each dish and sharing what they thought. This fun experience gave students a voice in shaping our school meals and let them connect with the nutrition team in a hands-on way.
