New Haven's public schools are moving toward managing their own kitchens. The surprise announcement came during a briefing by Chief Operating Officer Will Clark at the Board of Education's (BOE) monthly meeting Monday.

...... Larry Dorman, a spokesman for AFSCME Council 4 local 287, representing the custodians and local 3144, which represents facilities supervisors at the schools, said Aramark's ejection from the food business is "only half the equation. We need to see them expelled from the facilities maintenance as well."
