Public Review of Draft Standards in Nutrition

On July 13th, 2021, the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction began a review of academic standards in nutrition. Wisconsin Academic Standards are reviewed, revised, or both on an ongoing basis and the adoption and use of Wisconsin Academic Standards in schools is voluntary in State statute. The process begins with a Notice of Intent to review and a month-long public comment period. The State Superintendent’s Academic Standards Review Council examined those comments and recommended to revise the standards. The State Superintendent authorized the writing of new Wisconsin Academic Standards for Nutrition. The writing committee has developed a draft of the new standards that is available for public review. Any individual, group, or agency may submit comments regarding these academic standards by February 23, 2022 through an Online Survey. Additional information related to the review of the nutrition standards is available on the DPI Nutrition Education Webpage.
