Sedalia School District 200 will take bids for contracted food service after the school board Monday night unanimously approved issuing a request for proposals.
Assistant Superintendent Brad Pollitt said the district would advertise for bids, send letters to potentially interested parties and hold a pre-bid meeting that would be mandatory for bidders to attend; the meeting would allow bidders to see schools’ current kitchen setups and learn specific services and practices the district will require.
