CCSD School Nutrition Program Earns State Recognition

The Cherokee County School District School Nutrition program has earned top honors from the Georgia Department of Education.

The program earned the State’s 2020 Vision District award in recognition of its outstanding efforts to use Georgia grown foods on school cafeteria menus.  CCSD has received numerous accolades for its Farm to School initiative and collaboration with community partners including the Cherokee County Farm Bureau.

“Your collaborative efforts have positively impacted our communities and students and those successes are worth sharing with your entire school community,” Georgia DOE School Nutrition Program State Director Dr. Linette Dodson said. “Congratulations on your success and being named a 2020 Vision District!”
