Meal Options for Hybrid and Digital Academy Students
All District 196 students are eligible to receive breakfast and lunch every school day, whether in school or distance learning at home. Please see below for meal options for both Hybrid and Digital Academy students.
Hybrid Students
Hybrid students may have breakfast and lunch at school and sign up for take-home meal kits for their distance learning days. Take-home meal kits will be sent home with students on their school days.
Digital Academy Students
Digital Academy students can pick up five-day meal kits on Wednesdays.
Free or Reduced Lunch
We strongly encourage families to apply for free or reduced lunch as soon as possible to avoid any gaps when the USDA short term extension funding runs out.
