Ep. 25 Colorado voters have repeatedly backed funding for free school meals, but how much will the program ultimately cost? In this episode of Learning Curve, Erin Brantley and Ross Izard take a closer look at Colorado’s Healthy School Meals for All program, how the state pays for it, why additional funding has been needed, and whether taxpayers could be asked to contribute even more in the future. They also tackle another important question: Are students actually getting the healthy meals voters thought they were paying for? From rising food costs and rural distribution challenges to food quality and waste, providing universal school meals is more complicated than simply putting lunch on a tray. In this episode: -How Colorado’s universal school meal program is funded -Why additional revenue has been needed -Whether taxpayers could face future funding requests -The challenges of food costs, preparation, and distribution -Whether students are actually eating the meals being provided -What parents should be asking their schools about school nutrition -Do you think Colorado should continue providing free school meals to every student, regardless of income? And how much is too much to spend? Let us know what you think in the comments. #ColoradoEducation #SchoolLunch #EducationPolicy #Colorado #LearningCurve 10:54
