Why This Matters

Our Summer Nutrition Program bridges this gap, providing well-balanced meals that students enjoy during the school year.  We believe that good nutrition shouldn't take a vacation, and neither should we! Whether your child is participating in summer activities near one of our school sites or playing in the neighborhood when our food truck arrives, we're here to serve them with a smile.

Mark your calendars, spread the word to friends and neighbors, and join us for delicious, nutritious meals this summer! All children are welcome!

If you have any questions about the Summer Nutrition Program, please don't hesitate to contact the Capital School District Child Nutrition office at 302-857-4213.

We look forward to seeing you and your children this summer!

With warm regards,

Capital School District Office of Public Relations
