This bill mandates that each school district with middle or high schools establish a food services advisory committee. The committee's purpose is to consider and recommend school breakfast and lunch menu options that reflect the cultural, traditional, and dietary preferences of the student body, including vegetarian and vegan options. The chief school administrator or a designee will select committee members, which must include a principal, a food services employee, at least four students, and one or more parents. The committee is required to meet at least three times a year and must consider factors such as available funding, equipment, and nutritional value when making recommendations.

To assess the need for such a committee, school districts must distribute a written form to students to identify any unmet food preferences. This form will also be available on the district's website. The bill allows for the suspension of the committee's requirements for one school year if no unmet preferences are indicated or if the responses are minimal. Additionally, if a school district already has a student grievance resolution method that includes student representation, that body may substitute for the food services advisory committee. The bill will take effect in the first full school year following its enactment.
