But as we navigate this unprecedented school year together, take inspiration and comfort from the ideas and recommendations of your colleagues. In a one-of-a-kind virtual SNA conference, join your school nutrition peers to hear national participation trends, the best ideas to feed kids in response to virtual and blended learning environments and staggered academic schedules—all while using classroom, curbside, and other service models. We'll also discuss financial sustainability for school nutrition programs and ways to help district adminstrators understand the importance of school meals and the unique financial pressures currently facing school nutrition programs. You'll learn what's working and what's not, and collectively brainstorm solutions to complex challenges—practical ideas that will be developed in real-time and compiled as a take-home resource. Don't miss this unique virtual opportunity to compare notes, network with your peers, and inspire each other, from wherever you are in the country.
