DC Public Schools has announced that it has selected DC Central Kitchen to provide made-from-scratch meals for 7 elementary schools as part of a pilot project to improve the quality and nutrition of its foodservices.

DC Central Kitchen has already been providing locally sourced, made-from scratch-meals at Washington Jesuit Academy and Next Step Public Charter School, and has led the way as a model of school food reform, while at the same time strengthening local producers and providing economic opportunities for local residents.
