Henderson County Schools will be offering a new way to provide meals for students this summer.
Through the USDA Summer SUN Meals Program, children ages 18 and under can receive free meals throughout the summer. Each child may receive 7 days’ worth of meals each week.
Families must sign up in advance to receive meals and must register for the specific site they will use for meal pick-up.
Important Reminders:
• Children may only pick up meals at the site where they are signed up.
• A child cannot be signed up at more than one site during the same week.
• Only a legal guardian may pick up meals for a child who is not present.
• Meal location changes must be made at least one week in advance.
