Rationale:  Meeting Attendees:  Vicki Mefford, Pat Mushman, Carol Hastings, Jamie Ramirez, Jeff Andel, Joy Jenkins, Marlene Hartman, Shelley Friesz, Dave Gibbons, Stephen Grammer, Bill Comley, Dr. Hoesing,

1.  Budget/Finance Review:  We reviewed the 2013-14 finance report.  Expenditures for the year exceeded revenue by $2,977.89.

2.  Breakfast Program:  Our number of participants at each level exceeds our September numbers at this point.  We will continue to monitor our bus students to make sure those riding from the middle school have an opportunity to participate if they want to.  We will also continue to monitor those being picked up at the high school and preschool buildings.

3.  Lunch Program:  Student participation in the food service program at all buildings seems to remain constant.  With our increase in student enrollment, we are serving more students on a daily basis than in previous years.

4.  Afterschool Snack Program:  Jeff Andel is working with the Afterschool Director to provide a snack as part of the 21st Century Program.  He is also working with our vendors on supporting this program in addition to the grant program. 

5.  October Parent-Teacher Conference Program:  Jeff Andel reported that he is working with our vendors on organizing a food show for the October Parent-Teacher Conference.  He will provide an update at our monthly meeting in October.

6.  Safety Program:  Due to our high mod rate for workman's comp. insurance, we will be offering a training program through our insurance company to educate our staff in workplace safety.  Dave Gibbons will be arranging the program and setting up training sessions for staff.
