The USDA Foods Toolkit is a collection of valuable resources to assist child nutrition professionals in effectively using their USDA Food entitlement and to help them educate students, staff, and the community about the healthy contributions that USDA Foods provide to their meal programs.
USDA has established procedures to annually collect and publish the paid lunch prices charged by school food authorities.
The Federal Register notices announce the national average value of donated foods or, where applicable, cash in lieu of donated foods, each school year (July 1st through June 30th) for each lunch served by schools participating in the National School Lunch Program, and for each lunch and supper served by institutions participating in the Child and Adult Care Food Program.
