Last week, our High School and Middle School students rocked the vote at their Student Choice events! Student Choice is a chance for students to give their feedback on competing cafeteria concepts and vote for the winner.
Over 300 students voted, and Big City Barbecue was our winner! We will be incorporating these offerings into our upcoming menus.
Thanks for everyone that participated in the event!









Today, Tahlequah Public Schools honors the brave men and women who have served our country. Their sacrifices ensure the freedoms we hold dear. We thank all veterans for their service and commitment to protecting our nation.

In the spirit of election week, Chartwells will be holding Student Choice events at the High School (11.6.24) and Middle School (11.8.24) this week!
Students are invited to sample two new menu concepts and vote on their favorite.
See you there!

Chartwells held a Discovery Kitchen event at Greenwood elementary this week!
The for October has been Seed to Table, where they have focused on the impact of eating fresh fruits and vegetables and eating local produce. They spoke to the kids about being safe in the kitchen and demonstrated how to make a Pear and Raisin Salad. Some of the kids liked it so much, they asked them to start serving it in the salad bar! #ServingUpHappyandHealthy
