Junior High Uses Grant to Improve Nutrition

    As part of a comprehensive effort to improve student health, Biloxi Junior High School will become the latest Biloxi school to install new combination ovens in its kitchens.

Using a Nutrition Integrity grant from the Mississippi Department of Education's Office of Child Nutrition, funded by The Bower Foundation, the school will replace its existing deep fat fryers with oven steamers. The change, which will be in place by the Christmas holidays, is made possible by the Nutrition Integrity grant Biloxi Public Schools received in May.

The junior high is the fourth of Biloxi's six public school cafeterias to install the ovens. Plans for the district's two remaining schools -- North Bay and Jeff Davis -- are in the works.

"A combination oven steamer uses super-heated steam to cook foods with less fat, saturated fat and trans fat," said Dixie Eleuterius, Child Nutrition director at Biloxi Public Schools. "Since school meals are such an important way to ensure that our children are fit, healthy, and ready to succeed, we want the foods we serve to be as nutritious and appealing as possible.”

The new equipment will help the district's contract company, Chartwell’s, improve the 350 breakfasts and 940 lunches that are served each day to students and staff at the junior high.

   In addition to new oven steamers, the foodservice staff is finding new ways to prepare and serve school meals that meet the new nutrition guidelines.

Said Eleuterius: "With the new guidelines we are offering more fruits, vegetables and whole grains and limiting the sodium, calories and saturated and trans fat in school meals. The foodservice staff is working very hard at providing the students with healthier meals."
