Angela, Cook

Knowing that I can make sure the children have a hot healthy meal and they are fed every day is rewarding. The school runs very smoothly and the look on the children's faces when they see Mrs. Ross coming in with the food is the best part of my day! We are a great group of people, and we have fun with what we do here. Come on in, you will love it.

Ronda, Cook

This company is great to work for and it gives me a homey feeling. I enjoy the environment and the friendly atmosphere from the parents, too. The most satisfying aspect of my job is seeing the children's smiling faces when they ask me what's for breakfast, lunch and snack. I love to cook and see happy, full faces after they finish their lunch. They love my cooking!
