Anyone have the data on how much profit the school system makes from the school lunches?
Yeah, it’s only a .10c increase, but after “several years” of increases, the cost will be ridiculous for a school lunch.
According to the presentation at the board of education last night, HCPS makes nothing from school lunches.
Lunches by rule lose money. Snacks make it break even.
Ryan Burbey may know the profit vs cost for school lunches. I don’t think they make much off of it.
They don’t “make” anything. It’s break even.
