USDA Summer Food Service Program Provides Nutritious Summer Meals

Submitted by the School District of Marshfield

Stressing the importance of offering nutritious meals to children during the summer months, the Unified School District of Marshfield announces the sponsorship of the Summer Food Service Program.

The Summer Food Service Program (SFSP), which is funded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and is administered by the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction, provides nutritious meals to children during the summer, when free and reduced-price school meals are typically unavailable. Free meals will be made available to children 18 years of age and under. Persons over 18 years of age who are determined by a state or local public educational agency to be mentally or physically disabled and who also participate in a public or private non-profit school program during the regular school year may receive free meals as well.

The following locations will be serving the free meals this summer:
Madison Elementary School (510 N Palmetto Ave) June 5th – 9th
Lunch: 11:30am-11:50am

Grant Elementary School (425 W Upham St) June 12th – July 21st
Lunch: 12:05pm – 12:20pm

High School (1401 E Becker Rd) June 12th – 21st
