본 연구는 학교급식 영양사들의 한국의 전통음식과 절식에 대한 인식을 파악하여 전통음식과 절식을 학교급식에 적극적으로 활용하기 위한 기초자료를 제공하고자 하였다. 조사 대상자는 전남지역 초등학교 영양사 239명이었고, 수집된 자료는 SAS program을 이용하여 빈도, 백분율, 평균, 표준편차를 산출하였다. 주요 연구 결과는 다음과 같다. 전통음식과 절식에 대한 선호도는 영양사의 경력이 많을수록 높았다. 학생들에게 실시하는 전통음식과 절식에 대한 교육은 매월 또는 6개월마다 실시하였고, 교육방법은 학교 홈페이지 활용, 학교급식 게시판을 활용하였으며, 교육 장소는 학교와 가정에서 우선되어져야 한다고 하였다. 영양사의 대부분이 전통음식과 절식을 학교급식에 활용하여 계승발전 시켜야 한다고 긍정적인 반응을 보였으며, 전통음식과 절식의 전통을 계승발전 시켜야 하는 이유는 "우리의 미풍양속이므로'에서만 학교급식 유형에 따라 유의한 차이를 나타내었다.
