School Nutrition Association of Wisconsin honors member at state conference

Local resident Sharon LaValley was selected to receive the Future Leader Award and Louise Sublette Award for the School Nutrition Association of Wisconsin. LaValley is a cook/manager for the Superior school district.

Each year, the association honors school nutrition professionals with the Louise Sublette Award of Leadership Excellence in School Nutrition, which is considered the highest honor a school nutrition manager can earn. The award is given to the person who has taken a special idea, developed it into a goal and used that goal to help the school’s nutrition program grow.

The Future Leader Award is given to members who have demonstrated interest in developing leadership abilities and shaping the next generation of state association and initiatives and are committed to life-long learning and career in school nutrition.

The association honored LaValley at its awards ceremony held June 25.
