The Wood County Board of Education met Tuesday night to get a handle on new school nutrition standards and rising fuel costs

Food services Director, Beverly Blough, was there to present the new standards to Board members.

Under the new standards, Wood Schools will limit what students can and can not bring in for classroom celebrations, they're recommending pre-packaged food only, like bags of chips.

Vending machine products and their locations will also change.

The Board also discussed budgeting a certain amount of money for Wood County school for bus transportation to extra-curricular activities. This would allow each school to choose which trips they'd like to spend their money on.
