No School But Meals For Kids Being Provided

Sponsored by:

Sonora, CA – Tuolumne and Calaveras county school food programs are still cooking up meals for pickup even with classes being canceled due to COVID-19.

The latest information regarding meals from the Tuolumne County Superintendent of Schools can be found by clicking here.

The Calaveras Unified School District Food & Nutrition Services program reports it has enacted a meal drive though and pick up at a number of school sites.

The district provided these guidelines below:

CHILDREN MUST BE PRESENT IN ORDER FOR MEALS TO BE PROVIDED.

The following schools will provide a lunch for that day and a breakfast for the following day. Sack Lunch meals will be available between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. Monday through Friday.

*GET IN LINE using the BUS LANE (at the elementary site closest to you) to access meals.

*PLEASE STAY IN YOUR CAR AND MEALS WILL BE PASSED THROUGH BASED ON THE NUMBER OF CHILDREN IN THE CAR.

Schools Offering Meals:
• Jenny Lind Elementary
• Mokelumne Hill Elementary
• Rail Road Flat Elementary
• San Andreas Elementary
• Valley Springs Elementary
• West Point Elementary

NOTE: This program will be solely for the pick-up of meals. *MEALS MAY NOT BE CONSUMED ON SITE*

We encourage families to continue to be proactive in reducing the risk of COVID-19 by not congregating at the school site once meals have been distributed. Additional information can be found here.

Dear Families,

In an attempt to help our school communities, we will be distributing perishable food items tomorrow, Wednesday, March 18 beginning at noon at each school site until all dairy and produce items have been given away. You may drive through the distribution areas located in the front of each school. Please remain in your vehicle and our staff will bring the items to you.

Thank you,
