Federal pilot program providing free school lunches for more kids, including in Willmar

Nearly 65% of Willmar Public Schools students are receiving free lunches at school this year. Some of them receive them through a federal pilot program that automatically enrolls children who received Medical Assistance. In Willmar, all students receive a free breakfast. The district is eligible for some additional programs because of its high level of poverty.
