Burke High Cafeteria Manager Serves Students a Recipe for Success
From menu displays to plating and serving, Kurt Sage provides Burke High students with a restaurant-style experience. As cafeteria manager, Sage recognizes the importance of feeding young minds with nourishing meals.
“You eat with your eyes first,” said Sage. “We’ve found that students are more likely to pick a vegetable when it’s displayed nicely or there are multiple dressing options available.”
Sage and his staff create a welcoming experience for the 1,100 students they serve daily with their food preparations and interactions. He encourages staff to approach students with a kind gesture rather than a “do you want this or that” question.
“I want to make a difference in kids’ lives,” said Sage. “Whether that be from the foods they eat to the choices they make beyond high school.”
