Wellness Policy:
A Historical Perspective
Why the Federal Government
Mandated a Wellness Policy
Health Effects

Adult obesity has doubled from 1990 to 2003, with
rates jumping in every state in nation

Increases in illness such as Type 2 diabetes, insulin
resistance, hypertension, sleep disturbances, and
breathing problems

Estimated increase in hospital costs due to obesity in
youth: In 1979 was $35 million. In 1999 was $127
million
Why the Federal Government
Mandated a Wellness Policy
Social & Academic Effects

MA youth with a 30+ BMI were more likely than
those with 25 - BMI to have been bullied at school, to
have skipped school because they felt unsafe, and less
likely to have decent grades

MA youth who had regular aerobic exercise were
more likely to get decent grades than those who didn’t
exercise
Child Nutrition &WIC Reauthorization
Act of 2004, Section 204

programs under the Federal School Lunch
program or Children Nutrition Act of 1996 shall
establish a local school wellness policy

National School Lunch
Program (NSLP)
NSLP History

Pres. Truman passed National School Lunch Act –
6/4/46

NSLP established as “a measure of national security” in
response to malnourished WWII enlistees

USDA granted authority to define/maintain



USDA conflicted by responsibility to farmers
Regulations almost 30 yrs old
Sen. Harkin introduced bill on 3/6/06 to update food
standards
NSLP Nutrition Requirements





Based on Dietary Guidelines for Americans
Average of lunches offered over a full week
≤30% calories from fat
≤10% calories from saturated fat
33% of recommended dietary allowances





Protein
Vitamins A & C
Iron
Calcium
Calories
Limited USDA Food Restrictions

Meals/foods mostly chosen by school

USDA Foods of Minimal Nutritional Value
(FMNV) restricted during meal in cafeteria
 Seltzer
water
 Popsicles
USDA Commodity Program





USDA buys food commodities to maintain price/market
stability
USDA allocates and Massachusetts prorates our
commodity entitlement based on the number of lunches
served in the previous year
Commodity foods (Meat, eggs, cheese, canned fruits,
frozen and canned vegetables, beans, juice, oils, rice, flour,
pasta, grains) are offered at greatly reduced prices
Commodities tend to be lower grade: full fat cheese,
refined grains, high fat meats, processed fruits &
vegetables but recently the USDA has reduced the fat,
sugar and salt contents of it offerings and is increasing
the amount of fresh and frozen produce available
Economic incentive for schools to take reimbursement in
commodities over cash
NSLP Reimbursement





Free lunch
 Families at or below 130% of poverty level
 USDA reimburses $2.40 / meal
Reduced-price lunch
 Families between 130% & 185% of poverty level
 USDA reimburses $2.00 / meal
 Students pay no more than $0.40 / meal
Other USDA reimbursement
 $0.23 / paid meal
 $0.1675 per meal served
Reimbursement requires complying with NSLP program and
submitting forms to government
* For a family of four, 130% of poverty is $26K (185% is $37K)
How I determine what is to be
served daily
Traditional Food-Based Menu
Planning
The traditional food-based menu planning system
which requires 5 different food group components
in specific amounts for specific age groups has
been used by most schools since the National
School Lunch program was established in 1946.
The 5 food components consist of:
PROTEIN
VEGETABLE
GRAIN
FRUIT
DAIRY
Elementary Lunch

Each student gets a tray




Each student is offered



a protein,
grain
vegetable
a milk(1% milk or a 1/2 % chocolate milk)
a fresh fruit (i.e. apple, orange, banana)
Each student has the option to obtain more fruit from
the fruit bar (i.e. canned fruit either natural juices or
light syrup)
Middle School Lunch (5-8)

Traditional Lunch
A
larger portioned version of the meal described
above

Alternate Lunch
 Each
tray contains protein and grain (i.e. fresh salad
w/tuna or meat, subs, mozzarella sticks, yogurt, bagels,
pretzels, )
 Student
may select fresh cut vegetables ( rotating
assortment of 3 vegetables such as broccoli, carrots, celery,
cauliflower, cucumbers and peppers) and fruit
The “A” list & Ala-Carte

The John Stalker institute of Food and Nutrition has created a list
of “A-cceptable” foods that meet the Massachusetts a-la-carte
food and beverage standards to promote a healthier school
environment

“A” list foods have size calorie, fat and sugar requirements
WWW.JOHNSTALKERINSTITUTE.ORG

We recently started selling ala-carte foods to all grades. Currently
we offer Izzie’s sparkling fruit juices and fresh-popped popcorn.

In the future we would like to incorporate more “A” list approved
items to sell. (i.e. granola bars, yogurt, pretzels, crackers, frozen
low yogurt and low fat ice cream.)

Students must use cash to purchase ala-carte items
Recent Changes
Pizza dough is whole grain
 Whole wheat rolls on pasta day
 More homemade offerings (i.e. vegetable and
chicken soup, cookies, meatballs)
 All “A” list items for ala-carte food and
beverages
