School meals will be available during the summer
School soon will be out for the summer and students who have depended on free or reduced prices on school lunches and breakfasts can still get them.
Several school districts in the Pikes Peak region will provide the meals at designated schools for those 18 and under, and some adults.
“The program fills a void created when school meals are not available,” explains Paul McCarty, superintendent at Hanover School District 28. “It helps parents meet the nutritional needs of their children.”
The Summer Food Services Program is funded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture and administered by Colorado Department of Education.
Here is a list of the districts that have announced summer sites. Check with your child’s district to see where programs are available and what the qualifications are.
