She became the Food Service Director for Bridge City ISD in 2002.  Maggie said, “As a Food Service Director, I direct and manage the entire food service program for Bridge City ISD.  I ensure the implementation and compliance of the National School Lunch and Breakfast Program following the rules of Texas Department of Agriculture and USDA.  I develop policies and procedures as necessary to ensure compliance.  I also implement ongoing safety and nutrition training to a staff of thirty-six as well as process the free/reduced price student meal applications based on the USDA income eligibility guidelines.  This allows students from qualifying households to eat free meals or reduced-price meals in our cafeteria.   I am honored to be working for such a great district.”
