Submitted information:
School may be out for the summer, but Cobb Schools will continue to dish out food for students through July 21. Just as they did during the school year, Cobb’s Food & Nutrition Services (FNS) team will provide meal kits for students at no charge, thanks to waivers from the USDA.
Families will be able to pick up the meal kits for children ages 0-18 on Wednesdays from 9-11 a.m. at one of six school locations. Check here on pick-up day to verify the location and time and make sure your location is still available.
Cobb Schools Summer Meal Kit Pick Up Locations, which are subject to change:
- Clarkdale Elementary School
- Clay Harmony Leland Elementary School
- Daniell Middle School
- King Springs Elementary School
- North Cobb High School
- Smitha Middle School
Meal kits will include food for breakfast and lunch to help fuel student success on the go. When families arrive at one of the six designated school locations, they will tell the Cobb Schools FNS team member how many meal kits are needed, and the team member will place the meal kits in the trunk or backseat of the car. The FNS team is proud to offer meal kits with items that can be reheated at home. Reheating instructions and a menu will be provided in meal kits for appropriate consumption of meals.
Summer Meal Kit Reminders:
- Meal Kits are available at no charge to all children ages 0-18.
- Children do not need to be enrolled in the Cobb County School District, Summer School, or Summer Learning Quest to receive Meal Kits at no charge.
- Check back here on pickup day to ensure your location is still available as a pickup location.
- The last day of the Cobb Schools Summer Meal Kits pickups will be July 21st.
- Families may pick up meal kits for children at one location.
- Children do not need to be present in the car.
For students that are enrolled in Summer School:
- Meals will be provided on-site at no charge.
- Additional drink and snack items will be available for purchase in school cafés.
Families with additional questions can email Meals@cobbk12.org or call the Cobb Schools FNS team at 770-426-3380.
