Meals will be provided to all children under the age of 18 without charge through Alexandria City Public Schools’ (ACPS) participation in the 2024 Summer Food Service Program.
Meals will be distributed Monday through Thursday, June 24 through July 18, 2024, but there will be no meals provided on Fridays during that time frame. In addition, meal distribution will not occur on the July 4, 2024, holiday.
