GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. â Hunger doesn t take a break even if students take a break from school.
That s why local area school districts are still offering free breakfast, lunch and snacks to students during the summer months.
Forty locations, including MLK Park, Roosevelt Park and Grand Rapids Public School locations, will be serving the food Monday through Thursday with some pick-up days offered on Fridays as well. We re back to actually feeding our students hot breakfast and hot lunch in a much more traditional setting that they haven t seen in over a year and a half. So we re very excited, Grand Rapids Public Schools Food and Nutrition Services supervisor Jennifer Laninga said.
