The Greene County School District is once again going to provide free summer lunches for area youth.

The free summer lunch program begins June 6th and runs until July 29th. There will be four meal sites within the district, including at the elementary school in Jefferson from 11:30am to 1pm, the Scranton Community Center from 11:45am to 12:05pm, the Grand Junction Community Center from 11am-12:30pm and the Rippey Community Center from 11:45am to 12:05pm. All meals will be provided Monday through Friday free for those 18 and younger. 

Additionally, the U.S. Department of Agriculture has discontinued providing free meals to children during the school year and will no longer be available. Parents or guardians that are eligible for free or reduced lunch will need to reapply before the beginning of the 2022-23 school year and regular breakfast and lunch fees will go back into effect.
