Cafeterias at East, NCHS Cited for Minor Health Violations
|
New Canaan Public Schools cafeterias largely aced their most recent inspections by local health officials. Each of the schools scored 92 or better (out of a possible 100) during an inspection in the fall by a sanitarian from the New Canaan Health Department, and none was cited for a major, 4-point violation. Only two schools—East and NCHS—were cited for what’s called a “risk factor” violation (details below). The overall scores were:
East School: 93
South School: 98
West School: 96
Saxe Middle School: 95
New Canaan High School: 92
Just as with restaurants in New Canaan, a school cafeteria is said to “fail” an inspection if it’s cited for a major, 4-point violation, or if violation points assessed total more than 20. None of the school cafeterias failed during inspections conducted in September and October.
