AI Summary

This bill mandates that all public, private, and charter schools in Massachusetts, from prekindergarten through grade 12, as well as public and private institutions of higher education, must prominently display comprehensive food and nutritional information on their websites for students with medically restricted diets, such as those with celiac disease or food allergies. This information should include details on safe food handling for gluten-free and allergen-free meals, monthly menus with nutritional data, how to access these meals, and contact information for food service staff and disability services. The goal is to ensure students with dietary restrictions can easily find the information they need to manage their health and access appropriate food options.
