Canutillo ISD to offer free summer meals for children younger than 18

The Canutillo Independent School District will once again provide free nutritious meals to children throughout the summer as part of the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) Seamless Summer Option program.

The Summer Meal Program ensures children 18 years of age and younger have access to healthy meals while school is out of session. Meals are provided at no cost, regardless of race, color, national origin, sex, age, disability, religion, income or any other protected status. 

The program is available to all children ages 18 or younger, regardless of their enrollment status with the District or residency inside the District’s boundary lines

“Ensuring that children continue to receive healthy meals during the summer months is an important part of supporting our families and community,” said Dr. Josue Borrego. “We are proud to offer this program so that students can stay nourished, healthy and ready to learn.”

Breakfast will be served from 7:30 to 8:15 a.m. and lunch from 11 a.m. to 12:15 p.m. Monday through Friday at the following campuses:
