Children need nutritious meals to learn, grow and thrive—even when school is out.
Through the Summer Food Service Program, Austin ISD will continue to serve free breakfast and lunch to local children and teens 18 and younger, regardless of economic status and whether or not the child attends AISD. Participants enjoy meals without any registration or identification requirements. Kids simply show up at a participating site to receive a healthy meal.
Last night, Austin ISD's board approved a $1.2 billion budget to support its goal of reinventing the urban school experience. |
