In 2011, Chartwells School Dining Services decided to leverage the talent and
expertise of their chefs in order to help deliver healthy nutrition messages in a fun and appealing way to
children. As a result, their Chefs 2 Schools Program was implemented nationwide last spring. One year later,
the program continues to be a vital driving force in culinary and nutrition education in schools across the country. Culinary experts are showing children how to create healthy dishes that taste good.  Under Chefs 2 Schools, guest chefs ‘adopt’ a local school district and make planned visits to designated schools, for the purpose of creating a focus on healthy meals and educating students about sound eating habits and food preparation. The Chefs 2 Schools program can also incorporate classroom activities, local
farm events, hands‐on cooking classes, family food and fun nights, student council meetings, wellness or youth advisory committees.
