The Trenton Special School District FRESH project focuses on how our schools can offer more minimally processed school lunch options, improve student health outcomes, support local farmers, and educate students and the community about the power of whole foods.

The purpose of this survey is to assess parents' and guardians' beliefs about student taste acceptance, food literacy, and overall school meal satisfaction.

Your feedback will help the Trenton School Nutrition Team offer more nutrition, and delicious meals for the students, school system, and the community.
