The SmartCarton panel program for school milk is designed to tie in with the new law recently passed by Congress, which requires each school district participating in the National School Lunch or Breakfast Program to establish a local wellness policy by the beginning of the 2006-2007 school year. The wellness policy requires that students receive consistent nutrition messages throughout the entire school curriculum.
Tetra Pak® and School Nutrition Association launched the SmartCarton program to teach children the importance of good nutrition through fun educational activities. The program is tailored for kids grades K-6 and features activities, brainteasers and riddles on the side-panels of gable-top school milk cartons.
Tetra Pak offers the SmartCarton® program free of charge to participating dairies who supply schools with milk or juice in Tetra Pak gable-top cartons.
