Students will receive four meals on Tuesdays — 2 breakfasts and 2 lunches. On Thursdays, they will receive 6 meals — 3 breakfasts and 3 lunches.

The change, effective the week of April 13, lessens the amount of time employees are away from home while the state is under a stay-at-home order in response to the COVID-19 coronavirus. It also aims to make pickups easier for parents, some of whom have complained that daily pickups are disruptive to their new work-at-home and distance learning routines.

Additionally, because Friday, April 10, is a pre-scheduled day off for students, no meals will be distributed that day. Instead, students will receive Friday’s meals on Thursday, April 9.

Food will continue to be distributed drive-through style or handed out to students who walk or ride bikes. It must be taken off-site to be eaten.
