A   little   history   on   School   Lunch   Programs:
In   1946,   President   Harry   S   Truman   signed   the   National
School   Lunch   Act.
As   such,   he   is   quoted   as   saying,
“Today   as   I   sign   the   NSLA,   I   feel   that   Congress   has   acted   with   great   wisdom   in   providing   the   basis   for    strengthening   the   nation   through   better   nutrition   for   our   schoolchildren.
….
I   Hope   that   all   state   and   local   authorities   will   cooperate   fully   …   in   establishing   a    cooperative   school   lunch   in   every   possible   community.”
Today,   the   RSS ‐ Child   Nutrition   Program   is   an   intricate   part   of   the   Rowan ‐ Salisbury   School
