Schools throughout the United States are struggling to serve meals to students. This is due to the labor shortages across the country. This is a huge problem as many students rely on these lunches for nutrition and in some cases the students only source of a meal for the day. Covid-19 is definitely to blame as it has completely disrupted the distribution chain for these schools. 97% of school meal planners are concerned about receiving the meals for the week due to how big of a cluster the supply chain is.
