The Kent School District sponsors free summer lunches for children ages 18 and under during the months of June, July, and August.
The program kicked off Monday, June 24. The Summer Lunch Program, funded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, is a partnership between Kent School District Nutrition Services, the Washington State Superintendent of Public Instruction, and the USDA.
The program was established to ensure that during school vacations, children could continue to receive the same high-quality meals that are provided during the school year. Meals are available for free or to students who qualify based on USDA household income guidelines.
