Healthy Food Certification Compliance - Change of Authorized Signature

2022-23 Healthy Food Certification Compliance — ED-099

Pursuant to C.G.S. Section 10-215f, the Board of Education or governing authority certifies that all food
items offered for sale to students in the schools under its jurisdiction, and not exempted from the
Connecticut Nutrition Standards published by the Connecticut State Department of Education, will
comply with the Connecticut Nutrition Standards during the period of July 1, 2022, through June 30,
2023. This certification shall include all food offered for sale to students separately from reimbursable
meals at all times and from all sources, including but not limited to school stores, vending machines,
school cafeterias, culinary programs, and any fundraising activities on school premises sponsored by the
school or non-school organizations and groups.

FOOD EXEMPTIONS - The Board of Education or governing authority will allow the sale to students of
food items that do not meet the Connecticut Nutrition Standards provided that the following conditions
are met: 1) the sale is in connection with an event occurring after the end of the regular school day or
on the weekend; 2) the sale is at the location of the event; and 3) the food items are not sold from a
vending machine or school store. An “event” is an occurrence that involves more than just a regularly
scheduled practice, meeting, or extracurricular activity. For example, soccer games, school plays, and
interscholastic debates are events but soccer practices, play rehearsals, and debate team meetings are
not. The “regular school day” is the period from midnight before to 30 minutes after the end of the
official school day. “Location” means where the event is being held and must be the same place as the
food sales.

BEVERAGE EXEMPTIONS - The Board of Education or governing authority will allow the sale to students
of beverages not listed in Section 10-221q of the Connecticut General Statutes provided that the
following conditions are met: 1) the sale is in connection with an event occurring after the end of the
regular school day or on the weekend; 2) the sale is at the location of the event; and 3) the beverages
are not sold from a vending machine or school store. An “event” is an occurrence that involves more
than just a regularly scheduled practice, meeting or extracurricular activity. The “school day” is the
period from midnight before to 30 minutes after the end of the official school day. “Location” means
where the event is being held and must be the same place as the beverage sales.
