CONWAY — More breakfasts and lunches were served in the Conway School District last year in the first year under a privatized contract with Cafe Services' Fresh Picks, prompting the Conway School Board to ink another one-year agreement with the Manchester-based company for the 2019-20 school year. That was the good news, the bad is the district accumulated $10,000 in debt from unpaid breakfast and lunch bills by students and families (see related story).
Board member Jess Whitelaw, who serves on the food service committee, shared with her colleagues at the Aug. 12 board meeting, that Fresh Picks served approximately 12,000 more breakfasts and 25,000 more lunches than the previous year at the five schools (Kennett High, Kennett Middle, Conway Elementary, John H. Fuller and Pine Tree Elementary) combined.
