One hundred sixty-five school food service directors in the state of Georgia responded to a mail survey designed to determine self-reported compliance with the seven Dietary Guidelines, perceived feeling of adequacy of preparation to implement the Dietary Guidelines and demographic information. Results indicated that a majority (greater than or equal to 50 percent) of the school nutrition directors reported they "consistently" or "usually" complied with the seven dietary recommendations. Highest compliance was reported for the Dietary Guideline "If you drink alcoholic beverages, do so in moderation"; lowest compliance was reported for the Dietary Guideline "Maintain ideal body weight." With respect to adequacy of preparation to implement the Dietary Guidelines, 48 percent of the directors rated their preparation as "adequate" or "very adequate." Adequacy of preparation was positively related (p = .03) to attendance at the state Department of Education's conference on implementing the Dietary Guidelines. Adequacy of preparation also was related to personal compliance with the Dietary Guidelines dealing with starch and fiber (p = .03), fat, saturated fat and cholesterol (p = .04) and avoiding too much sugar (p = .02).
