Suggestions to Boost Milk in Schools Study
Researchers analyzing school milk programs in 13 midwestern states propose three ways to expand milk use in schools. They urge lifting limits on reimbursable milk quantities, keeping milk cold, and making it available throughout the day. They note children drink more milk when priced moderately, when milk is available as a drink or part of a meal, and when chocolate milk is offered in addition to plain white.
