Reminder: Jump Start school nutrition program kick-off event to be held on July 31

Newly-hired School Nutrition Program (SNP) directors and managers are invited to join KSDE Child Nutrition and Wellness for the Jump Start fall kick-off, on Wednesday, July 31, from 9 a.m.–3 p.m., in Hays.  

Jump Start is a free, multi-week program that offers a blend of in-person, virtual, and on-demand trainings for new and aspiring school food service directors and managers. This training opportunity is for those with less than three years of experience. Those with three or more years of experience may participate as a mentor. 

The Jump Start program incorporates personalized training and leadership development through mentoring opportunities. It encourages open-group discussion so participants can be actively involved in learning best practices from the field. Participants who complete the Jump Start program will develop the skills and knowledge needed for the successful operation of school nutrition programs.
