<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> I am a retired NYC teacher and former dean. As I was reading Tigerlily's post, I remembered that several years ago, the federal govt sent a directive to school systems saying that any system that served junk food and/or food with preservatives would be denied federal monies. Now, here's my thought--since celiacs are now covered under the Americans with Diabilites Act, may not this federal guidline be expanded to "encourage" school systems to provide gf food for celiacs? I'm out of the loop, so I can't track this down, but is anyone a lawyer or social worker? You might be able to help. Ann
