APS school lunch update

Good evening.
I thought it might be helpful to give an update on the Albuquerque Public Schools (APS) lunch issue that will take effect on January 5, 2009.
Brad Winter, the COO of APS, has agreed to meet with a Wilson Middle School family, school advocate and three members of the Collaboration on Monday morning. The meeting will provide an opportunity for Brad to give details on the APS decision that will pull students out of the lunch line if their parents owe any money to APS for school lunches. It will also provide APS an opportuntity to hear from a student and family how this new policy will affect students. I am creating an agenda for the meeting this weekend so if you have any thoughts about what should be included in the meeting, I would welcome hearing from you on this Blog.
Thanks so much for your support!
