“We have the opportunity to demonstrate something nationally unprecedented: that whole-food, nutrient-dense meals can improve children’s health outcomes, reduce chronic disease risk, and create a replicable model for states across the country.” – Deirdre Goldfarb



On December 11, in Palm Bay, Florida, the state’s Surgeon General, Dr. Joseph Ladapo, joined nutrition experts, education leaders, and community stakeholders at Odyssey Charter Elementary <[link removed]>, for a high-level summit focused on the future of school lunches across the United States.

The meeting showcased Odyssey’s 26-year commitment to wellness and featured a real-food model with the potential to redefine school nutrition nationwide.
