Anna Moles, the districts food service director, told the board the summer meal program remained steady and that the district had been approved for the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) for four years, which allows free breakfast and lunch for all students without applications or income verification.

Moles said the district served meals in parks and at the Boys & Girls Club over the summer and averaged about 300 children per day at those sites. She said the USDA authorized sending meals home with students for guardian pickup, which increased reach, and that the program partnered with a local "Art in the Park" event to distribute art kits along meal routes.

Moles also described ongoing nutrition programs: a supper program with the Boys & Girls Club and a CACFP PM snack program for pre-K students. In response to a question about the programs first-week numbers, she said the first week included 1,419 breakfasts and roughly 1,006 lunches (figures from summer reporting) and called the week one of the busiest openings the program has had.

Board members thanked Moles for the work. No board action was recorded on this informational report.
