The facility's chef was absent for a period during January and part of February. As a result, the facility experienced significant challenges in preparing and providing breakfast and lunch for the children in care. In the absence of the chef, meals were prepared by available staff and teachers, many of whom had no formal food service training. This arrangement proved to be difficult, and during this time, children were often served prepackaged, processed food items such as Cheez-its and Goldfish crackers.
