Data Source and Calculation
The Virginia Department of Education will maximize the use of federal funds reimbursed to local school divisions for the operation of the federal School Nutrition Programs. Federal reimbursements are based on the number of child and student meals served in schools that participate in the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) child and school nutrition programs. This data measures the number of school divisions and non-school sponsors that received increased federal funds but does not measure the level of funding nor student participation. Data are reported by December 31 of each year and are for the prior school year.</p> <p>Methodology: The data source used to calculate the Performance Measure is the School Nutrition Program (SNP) Summary of Reimbursements by Division Report downloaded from the SNPWeb reimbursement system for the period July through June covering the prior school year (school year 2008-2009 is year 2009, school year 2009-2010 is year 2010, etc). The total reimbursement earned in the report year is compared to the total earned during the same period (July-June) of the prior school year. To determine the percentage of school divisions with an increase in annual reimbursement, the total number of divisions with increased reimbursement is divided by the total number of school divisions participating. The calculation reflects only federal reimbursement earned for the National School Lunch Program (NSLP), the School Breakfast Program (SBP), the Afterschool Snack Program (ASP), seamless summer option, and Summer NSLP and Summer SBP. Other federal funding, such as funding for the Summer Food Service Program, the At-Risk Afterschool Meal component of the Child and Adult Care Food Program, and Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program (FFVP), are not included in the measure because it is not available to all divisions. The Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program is not under the control of school divisions to increase.
