Feeling the familiar pressure to provide more customization, Florida-based Stanton College Preparatory School has opened a station that extends a made-to-order approach to nachos, baked potatoes and bowls.

According to school officials, the menu for the Create station was shaped by student input and taste tests. 

“By providing foods and environments within the schools that closely resemble the experiences our students have in restaurants outside of their schools, we are transforming the school meal programs here in Duval County in a positive way,” said Chartwells’ K12 Regional VP of Operations Brian Giles, in a release.
