ÁùºÏ±¦µä ISD will partner with the Central Texas Food Bank to provide access to healthy food while campuses are closed for the Thanksgiving break.

In addition to the seven-day meal packs, the Central Texas Food Bank will provide attendees with an assortment of food items including protein, produce and dairy products.
Seven-day meal packs are free for any child younger than 19 as well as those older than 19 who utilize special education resources or who are enrolled in school to complete the requirements for a high school diploma.
Parents or caregivers may receive seven-day meal packs without children present by providing documentation (e.g., birth certificate, student ID card, report card, attendance record) at the point of meal service.
Meals feature foods that are cooked and prepared by staff in ÁùºÏ±¦µä kitchens. The healthy meals include protein, grains, fruits, vegetables and milk. Seven-day meal pack components will be chilled and served cold to be taken home and reheated.
