Amherst-Pelham Regional School District - Food Service Program

Food Service Program

Until 2003, the District managed its own food service program. At that time, they had Chartwells Educational Dining Service provide meals. In 2007, they began looking for other providers in order to save money. In March 2008, Whitsons Food Nutrition was chosen. The amount saved was $89,000 not including insurance savings. The company pays employees' health insurance, thereby saving the district that cost.

Famous quotes containing the words food, service and/or program:

    Hume, and other skeptical innovators, are vain men, and will gratify themselves at any expense. Truth will not afford sufficient food to their vanity; so they have betaken themselves to errour. Truth, Sir, is a cow that will yield such people no more milk, and so they are gone to milk the bull.
    James Boswell (1740–1795)

    This was a great point gained; the archdeacon would certainly not come to morning service at Westminster Abbey, even though he were in London; and here the warden could rest quietly, and, when the time came, duly say his prayers.
    Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)

    They had their fortunes to make, everything to gain and nothing to lose. They were schooled in and anxious for debates; forcible in argument; reckless and brilliant. For them it was but a short and natural step from swaying juries in courtroom battles over the ownership of land to swaying constituents in contests for office. For the lawyer, oratory was the escalator that could lift a political candidate to higher ground.
