**MEAL BALANCE NEWS**
On Feb. 20, the cafeterias updated their Point of Sale software. Since then, there have been issues with the new software communicating with EZPay. Programmers are working to resolve these issues. At this time, be assured that payments are being received and posted to you student's account, and balances are accurate. However, the student's current balance may not be accurately reflected on the EZPay website. In addition, Meal Transaction History is unavailable at this time. Please address any questions to Joan Bauman, Food Service Director, at jbauman@littlemiamischools.com, or 513-899-5130. We are sorry for any inconvenience.

Little Miami "Going Green"
We have all heard of reduce, reuse, and recycle. Now, the students in the Little Miami School district will be putting that into action. As of the start of November the students at the Intermediate School have been reducing and recycling. By simply stacking their lunch trays the volume of the trash has been significantly reduced.
The students have been recycling their empty bottles and cans in the lunch room. However, they are not the only people making a difference. The cafeteria staff recycles cardboard, cans & plastic as well. All of the contributions being made so far have decreased the amount of days that Rumpke has to empty the dumpsters from 5 days a week to 3 days a week, reducing costs for the district. The Junior High School is on board and the High School is next!
GREAT NEWS! GREAT NEWS! GREAT NEWS!
Thanks to a generous donation from WHOLE FOODS, we received a free salad bar at Salem Primary through a grant. Students are able to serve themselves daily, a wide variety of fresh vegetables and salad. A calendar goes home with the students, featuring a “vegetable of the week,” to encourage students to try something new.
