The expanded option is designed to better meet the needs of families and reduce barriers to accessing meals during the summer months. "We know transportation, work schedules and childcare needs can make it difficult for some families to access daily meal service," said Superintendent Dr. Whitney Oakley. "This expanded option helps ensure more children can continue receiving healthy meals throughout the summer."
According to county data, the child food insecurity rate is 22.5 percent. Summer meals provide a critical resource, helping children stay healthy. Traditional daily dine-in breakfast and lunch are available at the following sites from June 15 to August 13:
Traditional summer meal sites are open Monday-Thursday, 8 a.m. to 9 a.m. for breakfast and 11 a.m. to noon for lunch.
Families may choose one meal option per week, either weekly meals-to-go or daily dine-in meals. Meals will not be distributed on June 18, June 29 through July 2, or on Fridays, when district offices are closed.
