Access to Meals for Children 2021-22 School Year
Effective September 1, 2020 The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) approved a nationwide waiver to support access to meals for children while minimizing potential exposure to COVID-19.
The Nevada Joint Union High School District (NJUHSD) Food & Nutrition Services (FNS) program will provide an opportunity for families to drive through and pick up meals for the children 18 and under
in their family.
Please stay in your car and meals will be passed to you.
This program will be solely for the pick up of meals and meals will not be consumed on site. We encourage families to continue to be proactive in reducing the risk of COVID-19 by not congregating at the school site once meals have been distributed, continue to wash your hands often, continue to exercise social distancing, and stay home if you are sick.
