This year, La Jolla High has a new lunch menu implemented by the San Diego Unified School District. The new menu offers a variety of new food and fruit selections for students who eat school lunch. This nutritious change provided by the Sandi Coast Cafe pleasantly surprised many students.Senior Maximus Basov mentions, “I think the new lunch menu is good, especially the ballpark birria nachos, there’s a new variety of food to try”. In addition, lunch staff are also happy with the change. School lunch staff member Diane Healy says, “I love that our food is good quality, straight from the farms, and we are most known for doing that and being the best!” This year, the district seems to be more focused on providing fresh fruit as well as nutritious meals for students. The Sandi Cafe’s mission is to “source, prepare, and serve tasty, nutritious meals,” and students and staff seem to believe that the new menu lives up to these standards. Students are becoming more accustomed to trying new meal options. The cafeteria is undoubtedly pleased with more students wanting to try the new menu. SDUSD is working to provide students with a healthy diet and meals, helping them get through their day without worrying about whether they’ve had enough to eat. This new lunch menu will definitely have an impact. As the year goes on, students’ opinions might change; only time will tell if the new menu will be seen as a good improvement or a miss.
