Objective: Despite school food service directors' (FSDs) important role in the school food environment, little research has been conducted to assess their perceptions of barriers to and strategies for improving the nutritional status of the nation's school children. The aim of this study was to examine FSDs' perceptions about the school food environment at the elementary, junior high, and high school levels. Design: A cross sectional survey of the school FSDs in the United States was conducted. The sampling frame was a total of 5,146 FSDs included in a list maintained by the School Nutrition Association. From this list, a random sample of 508 FSDs were selected. The self report questionnaire was conducted via mail and included the following three sections: (1) social and demographic characteristics of FSDs, (2) perceived barriers to improving healthy food choices in the school food environment, and (3) perceived strategies for improving healthy food choices in the school food environment.

Results: Of the 15 barriers presented, lack of nutrition education for parents (80%) and pressure to serve foods that children enjoy versus healthy foods (75%) had the greatest proportion of FSDs agreeing that they were probably or definitely barriers to improving the school food environment.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
