A perfect score can be hard to get. But that’s what Catoosa County Schools just did … 16 times over.
Through a recent health inspection, all 16 of the system’s school prep kitchens received a perfect 100 health score.
“I was ecstatic,” said Catoosa County Schools Child Nutrition Coordinator Libby S. Cooke. “Our last scores were 13 schools had 100 and three schools had a 99 health score.”
And that’s with serving 4,000 breakfasts a day, 7,500 lunches a day and 200 after-school snacks, according to Cooke.
She said she is really proud of the 125 employees working in the schools’ cafeterias, and equally proud of the maintenance staff who helps maintain conditions to continually assist in improved scores across the board.
