No health food •
for Huron kids
The high schools of Huron
County are not going to offer
students health foods as an option
to regular cafeteria meals.
Richard Wright, purchasing
agent for the county's board of
education, was asked if Huron
would be following the lead of its
Perth County counterpart.
Perth's board of education is
installing refrigerated cases
containing salads, fresh raw
vegetables, fruit juices and
natural desserts in its secondary
schools.
"I don't see anything like that
foreseeable at the present time",
Mr, Wright said.
For a number of years, the five
cafeterias in Henn County's
schools have been leased to
concessions, he added.
The Perth County hoard of
education recently decided
refrigerated cases with a
selection of uncooked foods and
juices would be placed in two
Stratford high schools and those
at Mitchell and Listowel, SI.
Marys already had one. Whether
the cases will be rented orbOught
remains to be seed.
