School Meals Announcement – August 12, 2021 - Anuncio de Comidas Escolares

Community Unit School District 308 is excited to announce participation in the Seamless Summer Option (SSO) for School Year 2021-22. This means that meals will be available at no cost to all enrolled students. SSO is administered by the Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE) and funded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). SSO is traditionally a program option for schools during the summer but flexibilities due to the pandemic make it available for the upcoming year. SD308 students are scheduled to return to full-day, in person learning on August 18, 2021. Through SSO, all enrolled students qualify to receive a free breakfast and lunch each school day. The district won’t offer ala carte items when school starts to work out any logistical challenges and ensure all students have time to eat and to avoid long lines. 

LA UNIDAD COMUNITARIA DEL DISTRITO ESCOLAR 308 (SD308).  Se complace en anunciar la participación en la opción de verano sin problemas (SSO – Seamless Summer Option) para el año escolar 2021-22. Esto significa que las comidas estarán disponibles sin costo alguno para todos los estudiantes inscritos. SSO es administrado por la Junta de Educación del Estado de Illinois (ISBE – Illinois State Board of Education) y financiado por el Departamento de Agricultura de los Estados Unidos (USDA – U.S. Department of Agriculture ). La SSO es tradicionalmente una opción de programa para las escuelas durante el verano, pero las flexibilidades debidas a la pandemia la hacen disponible para el próximo año. Los estudiantes de SD308 regresarán a clases presenciales de tiempo completo el 18 de agosto del 2021. Por medio de la SSO, todos los estudiantes inscritos califican para recibir un desayuno y un almuerzo gratuito cada día escolar. En este comienzo de año escolar, el distrito no ofrecerá la selección de alimentos a la carta. Esto se decidió con el fin de resolver problemas logísticos para asegurar que cada estudiante tenga suficiente tiempo para comer y evitar largas filas.
