A number of schools in the Los Angeles Unified School District will pilot a vegan meal program beginning in the fall, KPCC radio reports.
School Board President Steve Zimmer says his proposal for the pilot originated from demand for more plant-based options at lunch.

If the program is a success, it will be implemented at other schools in the district.
