Healthy Summer Meals for Kids

Healthy Summer Meals for Kids

The Seamless Summer Option runs May 28th through June 26th at Primary and Intermediate.

Our children need nutritious meals to learn, grow and thrive-even when school is out. With the Seamless Summer Option, children and teens ages 18 and younger can continue to eat healthy meals throughout the summer at no cost, just by showing up at a participating meal site.

No form of identification is required; kids simply show up. The Summer Food Service Program
(SFSP) is administered by the Texas Department of Agriculture.

Con la opción de verano sin costuras, los niños de 18 años de edad o menores pueden seguir comiendo comida saludable durante todo el verano, sin costa. Solo tienen que ir a un sitio de comida que participe en el programa.

Los niños solo tienen que ir al sitio. No se requiere ningún tipo de identificación. El Programa de Servicio de Alimentos para Niños durante el Verano está

Yoakum ISD is a participant in the National School Lunch Program

The National School Lunch Program is a federally assisted meal program operating in more than 99,800 public and non-profit private schools across the nation. It provides nutritionally balanced, low-cost or free lunches to more than 2.3 million Texas school children each school day. In 1998, Congress expanded the National School Lunch Program to include reimbursement for snacks served to children in after school educational and enrichment programs to include children through 18 years of age.

Nutritional Requirements School lunches must meet the applicable recommendations of the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, which recommend that no more than 30 percent of calories come from fat and less than 10 percent from saturated fat. Regulations also establish a standard for school lunches to provide one-third of the Recommended Dietary Allowances of protein, vitamin A, vitamin C, iron, calcium and calories. School lunches must meet federal nutrition requirements, but decisions about the specific foods to serve and their preparation are made locally.  (http://www.squaremeals.org)
