BOSTON PUBLIC SCHOOLS

▪ 66% of BPS schools have satellite kitchens that consist of only a refrigeration and heating oven ▪ Food purchasing represents: ○ Vended meal programs are 63.6% of the food budget ○ Spent over $100 million in vended meals for 13 years ▪ Labor is a significant cost at 43.2% of the total budget, but it is lower than the average for urban school districts, partly due to the reliance on the satellite model ▪ Goal to be self sustaining based on reimbursements but challenged to provide high quality, local food with high nutritional value within budget to all students

Hub and Spoke - East Boston

  • We planned and prepared

lunches at hub/cafeteria schools to serve at spoke/satellite schools to:

  • Serve fresher food
  • Achieve menu equity
  • Improve the dining

experience

  • Reduce packaging waste
  • Pilot started in East Boston

last spring and continued into the Fall

  • All of this was made possible

by the Shah Family Foundation

= Hub = Spoke

BOSTON PUBLIC SCHOOLS

– The schools are located in East Boston, Roxbury, and Mattapan

  • These neighborhoods were chosen for equity reasons (see next slide)

and because BuildBPS labeled them as high priority neighborhoods due to demographic and facilities considerations.

  • Mayor Walsh joined Dr. Chang

at the Bradley on April 2nd and announced that we would be expanding the Hub & Spoke model to 25 new schools this summer! – The model will now be known as My Way Cafe/Mi Manera – The project represents a major BuildBPS investment, in partnership with the Shah Foundation
