In this yearlong experiential learning course students get involved in solving real-world problems that focus on food insecurity in America: understanding the complexities of the problem and educating our school community on these issues.

The curriculum covers aspects of food insecurity in America, including the history and policy creation of federal and state food insecurity programs.  Working in partnership with a local social service agency to deliver nutritious, kid-friendly meals from our own on-campus food pantry, students are learning about food access and affordability, while simultaneously educating the larger school community about these issues.  Throughout the course, they are expected to pose questions, solve problems and assume responsibility for the program to be successful.  

Cross-listed with History and open to juniors and seniors.
