For second semester in Fayette County Public Schools, the district’s Child Nutrition staff will modify food service according to whether students are still learning from home or return for in-person instruction on campus. Classes are slated to resume via NTI/2DL starting Jan. 7 and 8; further plans are still to be determined. 

Monday, Jan. 4 – Staff preparation for districtwide food distribution 

Tuesday, Jan. 5 – Meals pickup (2 days) from 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. 

Wednesday, Jan. 6 – Meals pickup (3 days) from 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. 

List of pickup locations -- Note the winter hours have changed. 

Families can receive food bags at any site regardless of student enrollment, but please limit pickups to one per household so there is enough food for everyone in need. If NTI/2DL continues in January, food service will return to the Monday/Wednesday schedule, with adjustments for holidays and inclement weather. 

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the U.S. Department of Agriculture has allowed school districts to use the national waiver for expanded meal service for children and families. Therefore:   

• Free breakfasts and lunches are available for anyone age 18 and younger.
• Children do not have to be enrolled in Fayette County Public Schools.
• Children do not have to be present for meals pickup.
