School Meals Announcement

Momence Community School District #1 is excited to announce participation in the Seamless Summer Option (SSO) for School Year 2021-22. This means that meals will be available at no cost to all enrolled students. SSO is administered by the Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE) and funded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). SSO is traditionally a program option for schools during the summer but flexibilities due to the pandemic make it available for the upcoming year.     

SSO meals are a healthy balanced selection of grains, vegetables, milk, fruits, and protein foods. Check out this MyPlate Guide to School Lunch (https://fns-prod.azureedge.net/sites/default/files/tn/SL_Infographic_81216a.pdf) and MyPlate Guide to School Breakfast (https://fns-prod.azureedge.net/sites/default/files/tn/SB_Infographic_81216a.pdf).
