Free summer meals to be offered at 68 Hawaii public schools

The Hawaii Department of Education said free meals will be offered at 68 public schools statewide, starting June 12. The meals will be available Monday through Friday, except on the Fourth of July holiday, through the U.S. Department of Agriculture's 'Seamless Summer Option ' program. Breakfast will be served from 7 :15 to 8 :45 a.m., and lunch from 10 :30 a.m. to noon. Children must be 18 and younger to qualify, but do not need to be enrolled in public school to participate. 'For many of our students, school meals are a vital source of daily nutrition, ' said Superintendent Keith Hayashi in a news release. 'Our cafeteria teams are stepping up once again to make sure kids across Hawaii stay healthy and well-fed this summer. We encourage families to take advantage of these free meals—no sign-up or enrollment is needed.' All meals must be eaten on campus ; no grab-and-go options are available. To qualify, schools must have at least 50 % of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch and host a summer program on campus. Parents may call their nearest participating school directly for details.
