Attached is the 2019-2020 proposed School Nutrition Services annual budget. The 2019-20 budget does not recommend an increase in meal prices. The following outlines key changes reflected in this budget.
Revenues
- 1. Decrease in sales to pupils. This budget line item has been trending down due to students
choosing not to purchase reimbursable meals.
- 2. Anticipating a continued increase in school breakfast participation based on the success of the
new High School and Penndale breakfast cart implementation this school year.
- 3. Continued increase in a la carte sales based on new offerings district wide, especially High
School frozen yogurt and cold brew sales.
- 4. Thespian Catering event was a huge success this year, however, we do not have a large event
planned for next school year.
- 5. Extended Care pricing has not changed for next year, however, payroll adjustment change that
we charge for labor instead of employees being charged from Extended Care.
- 6. Adjustment of subsidies based on meal sale trends and anticipated funding increases for next
school year.
- 7. Change in qualifications for Summer Food Services sites may result in fewer sites being
approved to take part in our program this year.
- 8. Decrease in one CACFP site that Souderton School District took over.
Expenditures
- 1. Additional funds added to SNS workers and Cafeteria Aides due to full day kindergarten.
- 2. K12 Consulting Inc, contract was discontinued for next school year, SEPA purchasing group
has a potential savings of $32,000 for next school year between food cost savings and consulting fees.
- 3. Purchases needed for back up POS systems, barcode scanners for full day kindergarten plans as
well as equipment updates including: Heated cabinets for Penndale and High School, serving line for Oak Park and additional refrigerated delivery truck.
- 4. Depreciation increased due to new equipment purchased in 2017-18 and 2018-19 school year
including: POS systems replacements for all schools, ovens for Bridle Path, Pennbrook and High School, compressor replacements for Penndale and North Wales.
