Portland Public School Meal Service Update: Pick Up Meals For Spring Break On March 19

Press release from Portland Public Schools:

March 18, 2021

Dear PPS Families,

"We want to make you aware of some important updates and upcoming changes to our meal service. Because of spring break, meal service will be paused next week (March 22-26). Please be sure to stop by one of our current meal distribution sites on Friday, March 19, between 3:00 and 4:30 p.m. to pick up seven days’ worth of meals to cover spring break.

With the upcoming transition to hybrid learning, the last day for home meal delivery will be Friday, March 19. The PPS Nutrition Services department is incredibly thankful for their partnership with the PPS Student Transportation department over the last nine months to make this offering possible for our students and families.

Meal service will resume with new locations and service times the week of March 29. We will share more information about the new locations and services times soon. Whether your child participates in the hybrid learning model or continues with distance learning, school meals will remain free for all students in all schools, regardless of eligibility. No student ID, names or other information is needed to receive meals.

For detailed information about our meal service, please visit the PPS Nutrition Services website. You can also email nutritionservices@pps.net or call 503-916-3399 with any questions.

We wish you a safe and restful spring break."
