Kids who are participating in summer programs will receive breakfast and lunch at the schools they’re attending.

For security purposes, the parents or guardians of children who won’t be on campus during the summer will have to place an order for meals 24-hours in advance by contacting the front office of the participating school. The children must check in at the office during the designated meal time and eat the meal on site.
