🧵I want to talk about what the school meals cliff means in real terms. Let's say you're a family of four making $52,000 a year, with one kid in elementary school and one in middle school. Right now, your kids are getting breakfast and lunches for free during the school year.

The benefits to growing your food are more than just financial. It's not to late to start your seeds indoors and remember, nothing in the ground before the Derby!

Students, we know that some of your favorite foods are missing from the menu right now. We’re hoping to get them back on the menu soon! We’re having some trouble getting all of our orders delivered. You may see some new foods that we hope you’ll enjoy! @JCPSKY
