We've had a fantastic week traveling across the district and providing free meals for children from birth to 18 years of age through our Seamless Summer Feeding Program!

We have been thrilled by the tremendous turnout and want to thank everyone for their participation and patience as we continue serving a large number of families each day.

Just a reminder that we have added a Friday meal pickup location this summer. Meals may be picked up each Friday in June from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. at Highland High School.

Please use the side cafeteria entrance, and park in the student parking lot located east of the cafeteria entrance.

We appreciate your support and look forward to seeing you each week!
