Food Services

SUMMER MEALS - Help us plan for summer meals! Russell County School Nutrition is excited to announce that we will be serving meals to all children this summer!

The Summer Food Service Program in Russell County will provide each child, ages 1-18, with 7 breakfasts and 7 lunches (including 1 gallon of milk) at each weekly meal pick-up. Families will not be required to participate every week, but will be required to take all items offered if they choose to participate. Multiple sites will be setup each week around the county for meal pick-ups. Only 1 meal kit per child per week is permitted. Children do not have to live or be enrolled in Russell County Schools to participate.

In order to prepare, we are asking for your help! Please, take a moment to complete this short form by clicking the link below. Filling out the form does not mean you are committing to participate in the program, it just helps us better plan to serve the families of Russell County!
