Happy New Year and thank you 2020. You have taught us more about love, compassion, and the commitment to persevering in difficult times than we thought we were strong enough to endure. We successfully expanded programs, worked in our gardens, made stronger connections with our Cafeteria Classroom Community, served millions of meals for free, and assisted families in our community with the USDA Farmers to Families food box program. It truly takes a village to feed and raise a child. Thank you to all of our villagers as this is not possible without you. We are proud that our village has continued to provide scratch made meals full of love. Note: some pictures were taken prior to covid restrictions. @rialto_usd @calsna
