Spring Break Meal Distribution Plan:
As a reminder, Spring Break for Wayne County Public Schools is April 10 through April 17 for all schools. This Thursday, April 9, all ten meal distribution sites will provide meals for both Thursday and Friday for those students who need this service. All sites will be closed on Friday. Next week, the Salvation Army will be stepping in to distribute meals at all ten sites, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday from 11:30 AM until 1 PM. Together with their support, Wayne County Public Schools can ensure there is no gap in service while we give our hard working school nutrition workers a much needed break.
“Since our buildings were closed in mid-March as part of the State’s efforts to flatten the curve for COVID-19, Wayne County Public Schools cafeteria staff have distributed over 50,000 meals to students through curbside pickup,” states Dr. Michael Dunsmore, WCPS superintendent. “We are grateful to our local Salvation Army for their efforts to help us give our cafeteria workers some welcome relief. Through their partnership and support, we can ensure students who rely on this valuable service can continue being served while our kitchens are closed over the Spring Break.”

- Brogden Middle
