Charles Co. CCPS meal sites update hours of operation for summer

Charles County Public Schools (CCPS) has updated summer hours at its 11 meal sites which provide free meals for children 18 and younger.

Beginning this week, the sites are open 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Monday through Thursday until Aug. 13, and closed on Fridays. Children will receive two meal bags on Thursday with food included for Friday.

CCPS meal distribution sites can provide parents with food for their children with or without their children being present. If the child is not present, the person picking up the meals must be the child’s parent or guardian, and show staff their child’s CCPS student identification (ID) badge or report card copy showing their student ID number.

Parents with children not yet enrolled in school should attempt to bring some type of age verification to show to site staff, such as a copy of a birth certificate.
