Best Practices:
One of the Alliance’s core values is to share best practices not only among Alliance members, but with districts throughout the country as well. Through sharing with fellow members during monthly calls and at bi-annual meetings and with the greater school nutrition community at the many prestigious conferences Alliance members are invited to speak at, all can benefit from the groundbreaking efforts of Alliance districts.

Expertise Sharing
One of the Alliance’s core principles is to share best practices not only among Alliance members, but with districts throughout the country as well. The Alliance offers a robust resource page on its website that enables visitors to access the group’s food and nutrition standards, compostable product specifications and key learnings that pertain to school meal programs. Alliance members have also attended and presented at prestigious conferences throughout the country and abroad to share groundbreaking efforts when it comes to school nutrition.
