The cafeteria staff at
Battle Creek Elementary has a special relationship with the students they
serve. Four of the five staff members live within two miles of the school so it
is common for them to run into Battle Creek students out in the neighborhood. The staff loves
when the students recognize them outside of school! The staff is also a tight knit
group. They love working together and often get together for dinner often.
With a combined total of 22
years of service, this experienced staff serves approximately 250 breakfasts
and 550 lunches a day. The kids love the pizza and Italian Dunkers the best,
while the staff love the cheesebread for breakfast and yogurt parfait for
lunch.
The
funniest thing to ever happen in the Battle Creek Elementary kitchen
happened on a former staff member's birthday. The kindergarten students
made her a birthday crown with the
number 83 on it. The kids were delighted that she wore the crown while
they sang “Happy Birthday” to her. When the kids were asked if they
really
believed that she was 83 years old, they said yes, and that she was
very
fragile!
