Parents and families,
We know many students rely on our schools for access to nutritious breakfast and lunch throughout the academic year. The needs of our children do not go away once the school year ends.
That is why we are pleased to announce Hillsborough County Public Schools will be providing grab-and-go meals this summer at no cost to children 18 years of age and younger at 36 school sites.
Students will be provided with two days’ worth of breakfast and lunch every Monday and Wednesday from 10 a.m. to 11 a.m. Distribution will begin on June 2nd and run through August 5th.
If a child is not present while picking up the meals, parents should be prepared to provide their child’s student number or their child’s name and birthdate for tracking purposes.
The summer grab-and-go sites are as listed below:
Students enrolled in face-to-face summer school programs will also be provided free breakfast and lunch each day.
We thank our student nutrition services staff for continuing to work diligently to feed our learners year-round.
Have a great summer!

Superintendent of Schools
