Swink School District wants all of our community members to have information about the Summer Meal Program Sites. Meals are free to all kids and teens 18 years and younger. In rural locations, some meals may be taken home to eat. Parents do not need to apply to the program for their children to get free summer meals. Even though Swink School District doesn’t offer this program, parents and youth can find summer meal sites by texting FOOD or COMIDA to 304-304 or visit www.kidsfoodfinder.org. Meals served follow USDA nutrition guidelines.
