The free meals are available at selected schools and served on-site, according to the OCSD. Some sites are already providing meals; the others begin on Monday, June 6.
Nutritionally balanced meals are provided to all children regardless of race, color, sex, disability, age or national origin during the summer vacation when school breakfasts and lunches are not available, the OCSD said.
All children 18 years old and younger, if open site, are eligible for meals at no charge, and there will be no discrimination in the course of the meal service.
