District reports 59,000 summer meals served; transportation ready for 2,200 riders
Summary
The district said its federally funded summer‑meal program served about 59,000 meals this summer and that the transportation department is staffed to transport roughly 2,200 regular and athletics riders this fall.
In the business report the district noted a large summer‑meal effort and confirmed transportation readiness. The business official told the board the federal summer‑meal program provided free meals via drive‑through pick‑ups and that staff served roughly 59,000 meals across the service period.
"...our food service staff served members and all they had to do was drive through and they picked up 7 meals a week if they showed up the 2 days that we were serving... and in that time they served 59,000 meals," the official said, and congratulated food‑service staff on the large reach. The same report said the transportation department held a back‑to‑school meeting and was staffed to operate routes for about 2,200 students, including athletics routes; the official added the district is 'fully staffed' for transportation at this time.
Board members noted the scale of the meal program and thanked staff; no specific budget breakout for the meal program was presented in the meeting.
