WS Chronicle

Winston-Salem/Forsyth County Schools will once again participate in the Summer Food Service Program. DINE WS/FCS will offer free summer meals to kids and teens ages 18 and younger at sites across our community. For families who count on school breakfast and lunch, the summer months can be stressful, and family food budgets have to be stretched even further. 

Meals will be provided to all children without charge and are the same for all children regardless of race, color, national origin, sex, age or disability, and there will be no discrimination during the meal service. There’s no paperwork to fill out – just visit one of our sites during mealtime and your child or teen can receive a fresh, nutritious, delicious meal for free. 

You can visit our website at https://www.wsfcs.k12.nc.us/page/free-summer-meals for our summer menus and locations OR download the Nutrislice app free from your smartphone app store. 

Six locations will serve breakfast and lunch Monday through Thursday beginning June 16. Service will end on July 24. Seven locations will serve breakfast and lunch Monday through Friday beginning June 16. Service will end on July 25. There will also be 18 mobile meal sites.
