Over the past several weeks, we’ve been gathering valuable feedback about GWA’s dining experience through both surveys and focus groups. Last month, we conducted separate parent and student surveys, receiving an impressive 312 total responses. Building on that feedback, we recently hosted Food Service Focus Groups with nearly 30 parents and 12 students per division, in collaboration with school leadership and our current food service partner, FLIK Independent School Dining.
Several themes emerged from the data, including the need to reduce wait times, improve food quality, and be more intentional with menu creation and options. In response, we’ve already taken immediate action by adding five new microwaves to the dining hall, bringing the total to eight. This enhancement will help shorten lines and make lunchtime more efficient and enjoyable for students.
We are grateful to everyone who participated and shared their insights. Your feedback continues to guide our collaboration with FLIK and the school leadership team as we work to implement additional improvements in the weeks ahead. Be on the lookout for further updates as we continue making positive changes and enhancements to our dining services.
