Beginning Nov. 2, all Round Rock ISD students will be eligible for free breakfasts and lunches for the duration of the school year, according to an Oct. 29 news release. RRISD applied for a national waiver issued by the United States Department of Agriculture that allows for the continuation of the Seamless Summer Option throughout the 2020-21 school year.

The waiver allows for contracting entities in Texas to employ the National School Lunch Program or summer feeding program, per the release.

Free meals will be available to in-person and virtual learning students, per the release. Children age 18 or younger are also permitted to pick up free breakfasts and lunches at curbside meal distribution locations.

Curbside meal services will continue for virtual learners and children under 18 for the foreseeable future. Students do not have to be present during meal pickups, but families are required to provide proof for each student receiving a meal. Acceptable forms of verification includes RRISD official letters confirming a child's enrollment; student report cards; attendances records; birth certificates; or student ID cards.

Meal pickup services run Monday through Friday from 7-8:30 a.m.
