Taste Testing & Student Input

Gilbert Schools had a great time taste testing Hangry Bear Pizza recently. Approximately 325 students chose to participate and gave a score of 100% for Hangry Bear Pepperoni Pizza! Wow!

The High School students loved it and are hoping to be able to have it on a daily basis on the menu. They enjoyed actively participating in making that menu choice.

Gilbert Schools was recognized in The School Nutrition Association newsletter, The Flash. You can view the newsletter HERE.
