Breakfast & Lunch Price Adjustment
ReportBoard Report 5/19/09
LodiUnified School District
Prepared by: Douglas Barge Warren Sun
LodiUnified School District
Introduction Food Service operational costs increase at
an average rate of 4% - 6% each year.
The current paid meal prices do not cover the cost of the meal production. (Free and Reduced meals are covered largely by the federal and state reimbursement)
• We need to adjust current meal prices to reduce the projected revenue deficit.
• With a balanced meal price structure, Food Service will maintain the sustainable revenue growth required to Implement the mandated Wellness policy, meet the program needs, and generate funding to eliminate environmentally unfriendly Styrofoam trays in the district.3

With a limited market of 29,800 students, our biggest area for potential growth is in Breakfast Participation and Paid Lunch Participation

Future Program Needs

• Stimulate overall participation in both breakfast and lunch by providing a pricing structure that lowers the combined meal price.
• Increase paid lunch prices to reduce the deficit gap between paid prices and cost of production.
• A win-win situation for all parties. Food Service will see increases in participation and revenue leading to program improvements. Greater student meal participation will lead to better attendance and better overall achievement. 7

• The additional reimbursement from increased participation will provide opportunities to expand the Food Service programs, further benefiting the students.
