(BIVN) – The Hawaiʻi Department of Education has updated the list of sites and start dates for its summer meals program, an extension of the HIDOE’s Grab-and-Go program, as the 2019-20 school year comes to an end today.

The participating sites “will continue to provide grab-and-go servings in walk-up and drive-thru lines,” the HIDOE communications team said. “Dine-in options will not be available. All children ages 18 and younger can receive one school breakfast and one lunch daily. Children do not have to be enrolled at the school distribution site and do not have to be public school students.”
