Reducing Food Waste & Sharing Tables Food Safety

Icahn Charter Schools Pelham Campus has introduced a "Shared Table" initiative aimed at reducing food waste and ensuring students have access to nutritious meals. The program, which is being implemented in school cafeterias citywide, encourages students to place unopened and uneaten food on designated tables for others to take if they're still hungry. The initiative promotes sustainability while supporting food security, ensuring that no food goes to waste and all students have a chance to enjoy a complete meal.
