SPRINGFIELD, Ill. — Cafeterias in some of Illinois' neediest schools will get nearly $1 million in improvements.
The State Board of Education announced grants of federal funds Wednesday to 57 schools in 43 school districts.
The recipients are part of the National School Lunch Program to improve the quality of meals, increase energy efficiency and participation in school meal programs.
The State Board will administer $903,000 in grants of no less than $500.
The money may be used to purchase, renovate or replace equipment.
