Whole Milk in Schools: New Nutrition Rules for Students.

This act allows schools to offer whole milk to students, in addition to other milk types. This means a wider choice of milk beverages for children within the lunch program, potentially impacting their diet and nutritional preferences.
Key points
Schools can now serve whole milk, both flavored and unflavored, to students.
Students will still have access to reduced-fat, low-fat, and fat-free milk.
For students with dietary restrictions due to disability, schools must still provide milk substitutes based on a doctor's note.
