Free Lunches Extended Through End of Year

/in /by

Good Morning Amazing Dragon Families!

We wanted to reach out to let you know about food distribution updates. Lunch distribution will be extended through the end of the school year.

Moving forward, families will have several options for picking up meal kits. Parents and guardians can now pick up meal kits for children 18 years of age and under at no charge to any family. This includes toddlers and preschoolers, children who do not attend APS schools, and those who normally do not qualify for free meals. No tickets required.

The website link https://www.aps.edu/schools/aps-reentry-plan/reentry-plan-news/aps-to-offer-free-grab-go-meals-to-all-children will provide your family with the updates and additional sites to pick up grab and go meals. We will no longer be providing meals from our 21st Century Public Academy location at this time.

The options are as follows:

Students can pick up six breakfasts and six lunches on Mondays only from 11 a.m.-12:30 p.m. or 4 p.m.-5:30 p.m. at the following schools:

Albuquerque High
Atrisco Heritage Academy
