GUILFORD COUNTY, N.C. — For many kids, summertime means food, friends and fun. For families who count on school breakfast and lunch, however, the summer months can be stressful and family food budgets have to be stretched even further.
Guilford and Winston-Salem/Forsyth County Schools will offer free breakfast and lunch to students under 18 years old during the summer.
"This program allows us to continue to support our students, families, and communities even when school isn't in session," executive director of GCS School Nutrition Services, Travis Fisher, said.
Summer meals will be available Monday-Thursday starting June 13. Breakfast will be served from 8 to 9 a.m. and lunch from 11 a.m. to noon.
