SECONDARY STUDENTS

During its meeting on January 21, 2021, the Salt Lake City School District Board of Education voted to move forward with an in-person learning option for secondary schools beginning on February 8, 2021. Under the proposal, presented last night by Interim Superintendent Larry Madden, secondary students would attend school two days a week. Wednesdays would remain a digital learning day, and high school students would have the flexibility to choose which classes to attend in person and which classes to attend remotely. These measures will help ensure manageable class sizes in some of the largest schools in the district.

MEALS FOR STUDENTS

Free meals (breakfast and lunch) will be offered to all students who attend in-person learning in our schools. Meals will remain FREE for everyone through the end of this school year.

All meals will be pre-bagged and offered in a manner to protect students, kitchen staff, and the public from COVID-19. We are unable to provide more than one menu option for Grab and Go meals each day because of these constraints. Our menus are completely pork free, and peanut butter will not be served to students who eat on campus. We will not be able to accommodate food preferences that are not medically necessary.
