School Food FOCUS Learning Lab Overview School Food Learning Lab engages selected school districts in collaborative research to discover methods for transforming food options. Each lab brings school food service professionals and their community partners together with research and technical assistance to study and work on specific procurement goals. The direct involvement of very large districts and local grassroots activists in reshaping supply chains is unique-and uniquely effective. Methods FOCUS began working with Saint Paul Public Schools (SPPS) in November 2008, Denver Public Schools (DPS) in May 2009, and Chicago Public Schools (CPS) in August 2010 to identify priorities, develop investigative strategies, monitor the change process and share results. During district site visits, the School Food Learning Lab Team-consisting of researchers from Michigan State University, FOCUS staff, district school food service professionals, and their community partners-engage in this process through: • Accomplishments The first Learning Lab was laser-focused on specific changes that SPPS district officials had been working on for some time but had not yet achieved. With assistance from its community partner, the Institute for Agriculture and Trade Policy, SPPS district officials expanded their relationships with local farmers and the middlemen who process produce for school use. The reforms accomplished in milk and bread will resonate on a national scale. More specifically, SPPS has: • Developed a formal bidding process to increase the percentage of locally grown produce °$129,700 in local produce was purchased in September-December 2009. This represented about 40 percent of total produce purchased during that period and included 15 items sourced from six farmers within a 100-mile radius of the city • Significantly lowered the sugar content of flavored milk in schools across the state of Minnesota

Collaborations with Partners have Helped to Establish: Grower/packer requirements: insurance, food safety certification, HACCP Product Specifications : variety, grade, and packing specifications Monthly requirements forecasts: by item, description, grade, case count, size

The Journey Continues • Local produce • Poultry • Cheese • Cereal
