Bragging on a local school district (and my niece).
Last edited Mon Mar 30, 2020, 08:28 PM - Edit history (1)
My niece is working as a teacher's aide in a nearby rural school district while she completes her schooling. Today was the first day after spring break. Of course, the schools are closed.
A lot of the kids in this district are on free or reduced-costs meals. There are many that the meal they get at school is the only real meal they get during the day.
The school staff met this morning to pack lunches. My niece then boarded a school bus. The bus driver drove her usual route with my niece delivering meals to the kids along the route. The school equipped her with gloves and a mask.
The staff are kept on the payroll and the kids get meals. A win/win. She might be safer at home but the kids would go unfed. I'm proud of my niece and the school district.
On Edit: The kids are being fed breakfast and lunch - just like they would if they were at school.
