ReCharge! Healthy After-school Snack Guide — Snack Programs in Action Kansas City School District, Missouri District Demographics: • 30,000 students • 80 percent of students qualify for free or reduced-price school meals • Large urban district After-school Snack Program: • About 4,000 children receive a snack each day. • Forty-three after-school programs located in schools participate. • All of the programs are in a low-income area. Snack Menus: • Favorite snacks include cereal and milk, reduced fat chips with milk or juice, yogurt and juice, and oatmeal cookies and milk. The menus include fresh fruit once a week. • Initially, the school nutrition department held meetings with the after-school program staff, but now the after-school program coordinator provides feedback through a more informal process by simply raising problems or concerns to the cafeteria manager. Process for Serving the Snack: • After-school program staff orders the number of snacks they need each day. The school nutrition staff puts the snacks in sanitary containers and coolers, which the after-school staff picks up from an agreed upon place at the end of the day. Students eat snacks in the cafeteria or classrooms, depending on the program. • The after-school program is responsible for taking the meal count. • School nutrition staff members conduct site visits in the fall and spring. Funding and Costs: • The food costs an average of 42 cents per snack. The cafeteria managers receive 10 cents a snack for putting them together. Creative Practices: • In addition to providing snacks through the NSLP, the school nutrition department provides two CACFP sponsors with about 600 suppers for the community-based after-school programs. 15
