On Wednesday, August 19, all Katy Independent School District students will begin school virtually. The District’s Nutrition and Food Service Department is gearing up to provide well-balanced meals to thousands of students through the Curbside “Grab and Go” Meal Distribution Program.
“For the 2020-21 school year, the program will look a little different from the summer meal distribution,” said Donna Pittenger, Executive Director of Nutrition and Food Service. “Even though students are learning virtually, it is the District’s goal to ensure that they are eating a nutritious meal and staying healthy.”
Curbside “Grab and Go” meals will be available to all Katy ISD students from August 19 through September 4, at 23 distribution sites, from 9:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Meals can be pick up at the site that is most convenient for them. Students will be offered breakfast and lunch daily. They can opt for both meals or only one, but will not be allowed to duplicate meal requests at different distribution sites. Meals will be charged depending on the student’s eligibility (free, reduced or full price).
- Breakfast: $1.25 ($.30 reduced price)
- Elementary Lunch: $2.25 ($.40 reduced price)
- Secondary Lunch: $2.75 ($.40 reduced price)
The Free and Reduced Lunch application is available at SchoolCafe. Payment for meals is encouraged to be cashless through the Katy ISD Pay N’ Go app. Cash and checks for meal payment will be accepted curbside, and change will be deposited into the student’s account. Students, or parents picking up meals, must have a student ID or proof of enrollment (with student ID number on it) to receive a meal. Additional information, including cafeteria menus, can be found on the Katy ISD Grab and Go Meal Program webpage.
