HCS TO PROVIDE ANNUAL SUMMER MEALS PROGRAM

Hardin County Schools will provide its annual Summer Meals Program In June and July, 2026. Free meals will be available for any child 18-years-old and younger. The child does not have to be an HCS student. The only requirement is the age requirement.

The United States Department of Agriculture funds the program. The USDA guidelines for summer feeding sites distinguish between rural and urban areas. Rural areas require non-congregate ("grab-and-go") meal service. Urban sites require congregate feeding, where meals must be eaten on-site.

Meals will be served Monday through Friday between June 3, 2026 and July 29, 2026. No meals will be served on Friday, July 3, 2026 (observance of the Independence Day holiday).

Meals will be distributed in the following manner:

  • Every Wednesday in June and July, participants will receive five (5) days of breakfast and lunch meals provided (non-congregate) at the following locations from Noon until 1 pm. Participants must register to pick up meals in advance by using an electronic form that that is present at this site: https://bit.ly/26hcssummermealsinfo. Parents must pick up the meals at the following locations:

  • West Hardin Middle School

  • Lincoln Trail Elementary School

  • The former West Point School building

  • Rineyville Elementary School

*Note: The meals cannot be eaten at these locations
