  3. In Gothenburg… We alternate the time of day we serve brunch. One week it is at the end of 1st hour – the next it is at the end of 2nd hour.

  4. Brunch items are loaded onto carts – and taken to the classroom.

  5. Each route consists of 2-3 classes, depending upon size. We have 7 carts servicing the Jr/Sr high building in a matter of 8-10 minutes .

  6. YUMMMMMM!!!!! Students & teachers are able to choose from a baked item such as low fat muffin, cinnamon roll, bagel or yogurt, fresh fruit, juice and milk from the carts.

  7. Then……. After choosing what they would like, students are checked off a class roster and payment is deducted from their lunch account.
