Green Students

Student group brings the green to Wheaton school — Wheaton news, photos and events — TribLocal.com: "Wednesday officially marked the opening of District 200’s first-ever cafeteria salad bar, which was made possible by a grant through the Great American Salad Project. It comes at no additional cost, with funds from the grant used to cover the equipment.

Food service provider Aramark also agreed to partner in the project and provide the salad as a healthier lunch alternative, said District 200 spokeswoman Erica Foreman.

The idea to include the buffet of greens originated by student advisory group the Chow Hounds, with students looking to mix up the cafeteria offerings with some healthier food options."
