OP,

My child is happy at her current school...but if she were younger, and we were just starting out, I would absolutely be interested in a school along the lines of what you suggest.  I think she would be interested as well.  As another pp noted, this is an important inititiative in a time when we as a nation are struggling with obesity and other related health problems.  It's become a matter of national security.  I like the idea of starting as a service provider -- you could help a broad swath of students, and learn lots  -- before building a school.

By the way, I have noticed that healthy eating always evokes controversy on these boards, with posters speaking out against initiatives launched by school boards and individual schools.  It is quite predictable.  I confess I at first found it surprisinng.  On the political scene, such initiatives are the object of strong pushback given financial stakes.    Of course, all groups have the right to express their point of view!  [/quote]
