Summary

The bill would have the Florida Department of Education develop a policy that school districts must follow to cut cafeteria food waste and single‑use plastics. Districts would need to partner with local food banks, install waste‑sorting systems and replace disposable plastics, then report their results each year. It was intended to reduce waste and generate cost savings, but the measure died in committee.
