Participating students are asked to fill out a lunch application before taking part in the program.
“Research shows that there is a correlation between good nutrition and student achievement,” said Life Skills Centers Special Projects Coordinator Ron Jones. “One of out goals is to provide every Life Skills Center student a nutritious meal at no charge.”
So far, school administrator Scott McClain said 20-25 lunches are being served each day. The program is expected to continue through August.
The pilot program is also being held at the Life Skills Centers of Summit County and Dayton.
