This is the notification letter our Head Cook, Pixie Ertz, received for winning the Louise Sublette Award of Excellence in School Nutrition for the state of Oregon.  Our school and our students are extremely proud of Ms. Pixie and her accomplishments. The Louise Sublette Award of Excellence is considered the highest honor a school nutrition manager can earn.  One of the requirements is to have taken a special idea, developed it into a goal and used that goal to help the school's nutrition program grow.

Pixie will be traveling to Boston to attend the School Nutrition Annual National Conference, where she will receive her state award.
