On the Frontlines of Serving Texas Schoolchildren
The Texas Department of Agriculture and Texas schools share a deep commitment to the well-being of Texas schoolchildren. Last year, TDA was able to strengthen that commitment when it became the administering agency for the Federal Child Nutrition Programs, providing funding and nutritional guidelines and services for public schools in Texas. TDA stands to help Texas schools with a "one-stop" nutrition information program Web site, designed with the specific needs of teachers, foodservice professionals and administrators in mind.
