Families can also receive grab-and-go meals at the Oasis food pantry distribution located at the Eastfield Mall every Friday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. while supplies last.
SPS continuously evaluates the need of students and families and will re-open locations if needed. The adjustment of meal services from Washington and Warner schools are due primarily to capacity issues.
Any child or teen 18 or under is eligible for the meal program. No ID necessary to receive meals, they do not need to be from Springfield, live in Springfield, or attend Springfield Public Schools. Adults may pick meals up on behalf of the child or teen.
Breakfast and lunch are provided for all in-person students during school hours.
