Healthy Hoosier School Outlook
The Healthy Hoosier School Award was developed by Indiana Action for Healthy Kids. The Award honors Indiana schools that have policies and educational programs in place to promote good nutrition and increased physical activity among their students. Beth Foland, a Registered Dietitian with the Indiana Department of Education and Indiana Action for Healthy Kids liaison said, “We are extremely pleased with this year’s results. The application process itself requires committed leadership, so for 66 schools to receive awards represents a significant trend. We applaud these schools for placing a high priority on teaching children healthy habits that will last a lifetime".

"On the first day of school, students were given a copy of the Student Conduct: Rights, Responsibilities, Discipline Policy And Student Rules. Students were required to sign for the receipt of these rules. If you did not have a chance to review the rules and would like to have a copy, please call the school office."
FAR System to Help EVSC Recover Funds More Efficiently
The Evansville Vanderburgh School Corporation has elected to use an outside company to recover returned checks that have been used to pay for school lunches. No longer will the district or school staff arrange for the repayment of checks returned for non-sufficient funds. The Federal Automated Recovery Systems (FARS) will now be responsible for the electronic collection of non-sufficient funds checks turned in to any school or district account.
The EVSC will gladly accept your checks. When you provide a check as payment, you authorize the EVSC to either use information from the check to make a one-time electronic fund transfer from your account or to process the payment as a check transaction. You also are authorizing FARS to collect a $20 fee through an electronic fund transfer from your account if your payment is returned unpaid.
If you have any questions about this system, please email EVSC Director of Food and Nutrition Pat Barsumian at pat.barsumian@evsc.k12.in.us or call the Office of Food and Nutrition at 435-8258.
