The Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) is a federally-funded, state-administered program more commonly known throughout the community as “Meet Up and Eat Up.”  As summer school kicks off, designated summer school sites, listed below, will welcome students to enjoy a healthy breakfast and lunch meal daily with lawn signs, posters, and/or banners stating: “Meet Up and Eat Up, Healthy Food Served Here.”

• SFSP reimburses program operators who serve free healthy meals and snacks to children and teens in low-income areas when school is not in session.
• The SFSP serves children and teens age 18 and younger. (ESE students over 18 are allowed to participate in the program.)
• Children who qualify for the program do not have to eat onsite. Children/families may pick up breakfast and lunch meals during the respective times per location.
• Children must be given a complete meal consisting of 1 milk, 1 fruit, 1 vegetable, 1 grain/bread and, 1 meat/meat alternative.
• Beginning on Thursday, July 21, 2022, and every Thursday until SFSP ends, (three) breakfast and lunch meals for Friday - Sunday each will be available for pick up from 1:00 - 1:30 pm.

• SFSP contributes to the healthy growth and development of low-income children by providing them with nutritious snacks and meals, often alongside recreational activities, to help address growing evidence of the risk of children gaining weight over the summer months.
