Klein ISD began offering free breakfast and lunch on June 6 to all children age 18 and younger as well as enrolled students with disabilities up to 21 years old.

According to a district news release, the meals are being provided at no cost to KISD through the Summer Food Service Program—a U.S. Department of Agriculture nutrition program administered by the Texas Department of Agriculture. According to KISD's website, families do not have to apply, register or provide identification to participate in the summer meal program.

According to Texas Education Agency data, 27,273 students, or 51.17%, in KISD were considered economically disadvantaged in the 2021-22 school year.

"Our children need good nutrition year-round so they can learn, grow and succeed in life," said Tiffany Muecke, interim director of Nutrition and Food Services. "With nearly 2 million children with food insecurities living in Texas, these health meals are vital to nourishing young Texans during the summer vacation."


KISD will distribute summer meals at 28 district sites in accordance with the following schedule:
