Twenty-three lunch vehicles on a Georgia tag
Keep USAspending rows labeled NATIONAL SCHOOL LUNCH PROGRAM whose geography is Georgia (GA). Twenty-three awards remain. They sum to $5,384,096,413.80. NSLP reimburses participating schools and school food authorities. The federal relationship can appear as a modest number of large assistance actions.
The implied mean is about $234,091,100 per award — lower than Illinois’s NSLP implied mean on a similar row count. That difference is vehicle mix, not a finding that Georgia lunches cost less. Unique schools and unique meals are unpublished.
Georgia federal spending is every CFDA on GA. CFDA 10.555 is NSLP nationwide. National School Lunch Program in Georgia is the overlap. Georgia programs and All spending ties are the indexes.
State agencies and large food authorities can receive sizable NSLP vehicles. Unique schools are unpublished. 23 is not 23 districts.
Atlanta Public Schools is not broken out. $5,384,096,413.80 is statewide.
Lunch is not SNAP and not SLFRF
Georgia’s SLFRF cell in this slice is three awards on a different Catalog number. Do not treat school lunch as pandemic recovery. SNAP, if present on a Georgia 10.551 page, is also a different join.
School breakfast and summer meals use other CFDA numbers unless coded 10.555. This page keeps lunch only.
Place-of-performance often follows the state agency or a large district. A GA tag does not locate every cafeteria. Atlanta Public Schools is not broken out.
Georgia SLFRF is three awards on 21.027. Lunch is 23 on 10.555. Pandemic recovery is not school meals.
Breakfast and summer meals stay outside unless coded 10.555.
