Read the July/August 2026 Issue of School Nutrition Magazine
As we head into the new school year, it's worth reflecting on your career so far—what drew you into school nutrition initially, what it is about this field that encourages you to stick around and what goals you have for the future. Every journey in this profession is unique, and every role is just as vital in keeping our programs running smoothly and advancing the school nutrition field as a whole.
In this issue of School Nutrition, we're exploring exactly that. You'll get to meet SNA's 2026-27 President Ashley Powell and learn how her professional path has shaped her perspective and led her to leading the national association today. Plus, learn more about the journeys of all four of SNA's 2026 national award winners and what keeps them passionate, get tips for giving (and receiving) effective feedback, even when it feels challenging, and discover festive recipe ideas perfect for bringing more fun into the cafeteria.
