Testimonials
“Having Pedestal Foods® on board as our food provider has been integral to this process, it has developed a comprehensive plan to serve so many while having limited space to do so. Our students, parents and staff are overwhelmingly pleased with these changes.”
DR. DICKIE SOMPAYRAC, PRESIDENT OF KNOXVILLE CATHOLIC HIGH SCHOOL
“My favorite thing about Pedestal Foods is their flexibility and desire to work closely with us to accommodate the frequently changing situations in the school community.”
FATHER RALPH SIEFERT, PRESIDENT OF CHAMINADE COLLEGE PREPARATORY SCHOOL
“Pedestal Foods delivered exactly what they said they would… and more. I had no idea when they told me what was going to happen that it was actually what I could expect. I was prepared for disruptions with a major renovation, but the Pedestal Foods facility development team took care of everything – down to the last detail.”
TOM HOOD, PRESIDENT OF ST. AGNES ACADEMY – ST. DOMINIC SCHOOL
“Pedestal Foods’ thoughtful transformation of our dining space and fresh, student-friendly menus have really gained the attention of the student community. We’ve more than doubled our meal participation and turned our dining program into a source of additional revenue for the school.”
GEORGE VALADIE, PRESIDENT OF NOTRE DAME HIGH SCHOOL
“The Pedestal Foods team was honest and realistic about all aspects of the process from the renovation, technology rollover, employee quality, to the taste of the food. Since school began, the food has been outstanding, and our students and staff have enjoyed the change. The cost to our families did not increase but the quality of service certainly has. The journey with Pedestal Foods has been outstanding and a tremendous enhancement to Northpoint Christian School.”
JIM FERGUSON, HEAD OF SCHOOL AT NORTHPOINT CHRISTIAN SCHOOL
“The attention to detail and level of support from start to finish and beyond has been nothing short of exceptional. When you take on a major renovation, you expect some hiccups and delays, but the Pedestal Foods team was able to quickly adapt to changing situations as they arose. And to top it off, we’re excited to be able to serve our students and faculty consistently good, healthy food in a fun and inviting atmosphere.”
LELIA KRAMER, PRESIDENT OF ST. URSULA ACADEMY
“Students as well as faculty and staff are pleased with the menu selection and quality of the product.”
BOB SCHNUR, DIRECTOR OF FINANCE & OPERATIONS AT CHAMINADE COLLEGE PREPARATORY HIGH SCHOOL
“The whole team hits the dining hall before practice – we try to eat high-protein stuff before our workouts and it’s all there.”
JASON T., POPE JOHN PAUL II
“It’s really convenient that the protein and stuff I need to eat before practice is here in the dining hall.”
JAYDEN W., FATHER RYAN HIGH SCHOOL
“I like that I can find good salads and wraps and other healthy things at school now. There’s always something new to choose from.”

“I had no idea what a bahn mi sandwich was, but now it’s my favorite thing!”
NICHOLE B., LINDENWOOD UNIVERSITY
“The new dining space feels more like a food court where we’d hang out after school. And the food is great, too! I never bring my lunch anymore.”
