AISD will feed the children this summer
Thursday, May 23, 2024 by Elizabeth Pagano
Austin ISD will provide free summer meals to children 18 and younger (as well as students with disabilities who are younger than 21) through its Summer Food Service Program. Children do not need to meet income requirements or be enrolled in AISD to be fed, and there are no registration or identification requirements. Families can find meal sites by calling 211, texting FOOD or COMIDA to 304-304, or checking out the Summer Food and Austin ISD websites. According to a press release from the district, these campuses will serve summer meals:
- Elementary schools: Allison, Andrews, Blazier Primary, Blanton, Campbell, Casey, Dawson, Govalle, Guerrero-Thompson, Hart, Houston, Joslin, Kocurek, McBee, Menchaca, Norman-Sims, Ortega, Overton, Padron, Pecan Springs, Pickle, Pillow, Sanchez, Uphaus ECC, Widen, Wooldridge
- Middle schools: Bedichek, Burnet, Dobie, Lively, Mendez, Webb
- High schools: Akins ECHS, Crockett ECHS, LBJ ECHS, Navarro ECHS, Northeast ECHS, Travis ECHS
- Other campuses: Ann Richards School for Young Women Leaders
The program feeds children who rely on school meals over the summer through a U.S. Department of Agriculture nutrition program.
