Rowan District Receives Lunch Waiver

Wiley Tanner

The Rowan County School district received a waiver allowing them to serve school lunch and breakfast to more children in the community.

When School began August 26th, the district was only allowed to give meals to students enrolled in Rowan County- and they gave out far fewer meals than the spring program. 

Food Service Director Glen Teager says the National School Lunch Program was more restrictive than the Summer Feeding Program. 

Lunch is served weekdays from 11:30 am to 1 pm at Tilden Hogge, Rodburn, McBrayer, and Clearfield elementary schools, and the Rowan County Middle School.
