JOE Act

Jumpstarting Occupational-learning and Entrepreneurship Act or the JOE Act - Amends the Child Nutrition Act of 1966 to exempt school-based enterprises that are managed as part of a school's curriculum from the nutrition standards for foods sold in schools that are not foods provided under the school lunch and breakfast programs.

Defines a "school-based enterprise" as an entrepreneurial operation in a school setting that:

• provides goods or services to meet the needs of the market;
• is managed and operated by students as a hands-on learning laboratory;
• provides realistic and practical learning experiences that reinforce classroom instruction;
• may sell to consumers through a permanent location, a mobile kiosk, or through Internet marketing; and
• may sell products such as food and beverage items or provide services such as event catering.
