Three Options for Meal Service:
Child Pick-Up: Children 0-18 may receive free meal service at each meal site. This is the ONLY option available for Reed Road Mobile Sites and Louisville Street Mobile Sites.
Parent Pick-Up: Parents who are unable to bring their children to a pick-up site for meal service may receive meals upon completion of a consent form. Consent forms are available at each pick up site for completion.
Volunteer Pick -Up: Families who are unable to come to a pick-up site for meal service can arrange for someone (a friend, relative, volunteer) to deliver meals to your home. The parent must complete a consent form giving permission for volunteer pick-up. The volunteer will also be require to sign a form acknowledging receipt of meals at the pick-up site. Consent forms are available at each pick up site. The District is no longer able to provide door-to-door meal delivery or facilitate volunteer meal delivery. Families must make arrangements for meal pick-up service.

Please continue to practice preventative measures with your family as recommended by the CDC as we try to flatten the curve in our community and slow the spread of Covid19. Wash your hands. A LOT. Socially distance yourselves. Stay at home if at all possible. Please familiarize yourself with the list of guidelines at www.starkvillesd.com/covid19.
Take care,
Your Jacket family
