Last school year and the beginning of this year have been nothing short of challenging for those in child nutrition. However, Aaron Smith, Director of Nutrition Services at Seattle Public Schools, and his Executive Chef, Emme Collins always seem to find a way. Whether it’s the challenge of taking over a new program, not having staff, and then being hit with a pandemic, Aaron and Chef Emme have been consistently innovating and thriving. Seattle Public Schools offers students one of the most diverse menus we’ve ever seen and it stems from their personal experiences, tenacity, and passion to serve their community and their students.
