Prices of milk, bread, produce and other grocery items continue to escalate and cause financial worry for Brunswick County Schools’ child nutrition services.
Tina Ward, director of child nutrition services, said last month the department was operating with a deficit of $107.919.49 as of Jan. 1.
To try and balance the budget and retain a three-month operating balance, Ward suggested the board raise student meal prices 20 cents for elementary and high schools and 30 cents for middle schools beginning with the 2008-2009 school year.
