Listed in Texas Open Data

Help us provide the most useful data by completing our ODP User Feedback Survey for School Nutrition Data About the Dataset This dataset serves as source data for the Texas Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Meal Served Dashboard.

Description

Data is based on the School Nutrition Program (SNP) Meal Reimbursement, Seamless Summer Option (SSO) Meal Count, and Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) Meal Count datasets currently published on the Texas Open Data Portal.

For the purposes of dashboard reporting, the school year for summer meal programs is defined as March 2020 through May 2020. The School Nutrition Program meals are reported by program year which runs July 1 through June 30. In March 2020, USDA began allowing flexibility in nutrition assistance program policies in order to support continued meal access should the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) impact meal service operation.

Flexibilities were extended into the 2021-2022 program year and allowed School Nutrition Programs to operate Seamless Summer Option through the 2021-2022 school year.
