Shoutout to our incredible food services team! 🍎👩‍🍳 The Iowa Department of Inspections visited Oakland Elementary School and our Middle/High School today. We are thrilled to share that the food services teams at both sites passed their inspection from the Iowa Department of Inspections with flying colors. Their hard work, attention to detail, and unwavering commitment to serving safe, delicious, and nutritious meals to our students and staff do not go unnoticed.
