Atlanta Public School’s students Bounce Back and rise to academic excellence with school meals for SY22. USDA has recently announced the extension of the Seamless Summer Option (SSO) waiver through the school year 2021-2022, allowing APS to offer FREE meals to all schools throughout the district without parents having to complete the household free and reduced meal eligibility application. APS will provide breakfast and lunch in the classroom to all students attending an APS school for in-person learning.

Additionally, APS will provide FREE 5-day meal kits (5-breakfast meals and 5-lunch meals) for APS Virtual Academy (AVA) learners and children (ages 1-18) that do not attend APS schools.  Beginning Wednesday, August 11, AVA students and non-APS community children (ages 1-18) are welcome to receive FREE 5-day meal kits from one of the 4 curbside pick-up locations listed below from 11 AM – 1:30 PM.
