The Montgomery County Public
Schools’ School Nutrition Program shall be maintained on a self-sustaining
basis. In the event that funds for the operation of the program appear to be
insufficient during the fiscal year, the Montgomery County School Board may
appropriate such funds as are necessary to sustain the current program. All
School Nutrition Program funds shall be maintained in a separate fund for all
receipts and expenditures.
The division superintendent or his/her designee has the responsibility of presenting to the School Board a School Nutrition Program budget in which estimated receipts of cash and commodities are balanced with the estimate of disbursements required to run the food services program in a manner that satisfies state and federal requirements. For further information about School Nutrition Program operation, please see Policies 4-5.1 and
4-5.2.
