The USDA Farm to School Implementation Grant is a two-year grant for $100,000 to further develop existing farm to school initiatives, improving the health of children through nutrition education and the promotion of healthier eating. We are pursuing a collaborative application with La Honda-Pescadero Unified School District, with approximately two-thirds of funding being designated for our district and one-third for our partner district. If awarded, this grant would provide contracted staffing at four school sites in our district and two sites in La Honda-Pescadero to train teachers to deliver nutrition education lessons and to engage students directly during lunch time. Lunch time activities would include offering taste tests and other activities using the healthy foods being served. Grant funds would also support school gardens and visits from farmers at these sites. The application is due December 4, 2018, and awards will be made in May 2019. Programs start in July of 2019. An in-kind match of $35,000 is required; this match will be provided through existing school site staff time to participate in the project and through partner contributions, including training for food service personnel and participation of staff and community organizations in the partnering school district.

On February 5, 2008, the San Mateo-Foster City School District successfully passed the Measure L Capital Facilities Bond. The election was conducted under Proposition 39, which establishes strict accountability. The District established a Citizens' Bond Oversight Committee (CBOC), which has the duties and oversight set forth in the Board approved Committee Bylaws. The CBOC does not have independent legal capacity from the District. After ten years, and as Measure L comes to a close, fewer and fewer community members have expressed interest in joining the CBOC, consequently a quorum has been difficult to attain at recent meetings. On August 23, 2018, the Board approved Resolution No. 05/18-19, expanding the responsibilities of the Measure X CBOC to include reviewing the financial expenditures of Measure L bond proceeds, and combining the L and X CBOC members into a new Measure X CBOC. A final progress report of the activities of the Measure L CBOC will be presented by it's chairman, Mr. Ryan Nobrega.
