STAR JOURNAL REPORT

The School District of Rhinelander is once again sponsoring the Summer Food Service Program. Free meals will be made available to all children 18 years of age and under.

“This program fills a void created when school breakfasts and lunches are not available,” said SDR food service director Patricia Karaba. “Helping parents meet the nutritional needs of their children is the strength of this program.”

The Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) is funded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and administered by the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction. The goal is to provide nutritious meals to children during the summer, when free and reduced-price school meals are typically unavailable.
