MontCo trying to add salad bars into school cafeterias

Montgomery County is trying to feed its students more vegetables. The public school system wants to have 15 to 20 salad bars added to the Free or Reduced-price Meals program by the end of the year, Department of Food and Nutrition Services Director Marla Caplon told the County Council’s education committee Monday. Currently, 10 salad bars are in middle and high schools, but only one is available to students in the meals program.
