Please share the details about free lunches served on Saturdays at select DPR and DCPL sites
Are you a hero to the kids in your program, your neighbors, family members? It doesn't take a lot. All you have to do is share information about DC Free Summer Meals Program (meals served Monday - Saturday). The flyer is available in PDF and JPEG, both below.
One City Youth is encouraging DC Free Summer Meals Program heroes to email their outreach efforts so they can be documented them and heroes recognized!
This was originally posted on the Susie's Budget and Policy Corner blog in the post Are you a DC Free Summer Meals Program hero?.

Free lunch on Saturdays, anyone?
That's right. Free lunch for all kids in DC. Shocked? Surprised? Don't be. DC has served free meals on Saturdays before. The point, after all, is to make sure kids are not hungry on weekends.
DC Free Summer Meals is an important component in One City Youth as evidenced by the real estate dedicated to the program on the One City Youth website. In addition to the searchable map prepared by OCY partner DC Hunger Solutions, the site is home to outreach materials, chief among which are the flyers in Amharic, English, French, Korean, SimChi, Spanish, and Vietnamese; a short PSA; and a list of sites containing Ward and ANC info.
What are you waiting for? Help feed some kids on Saturdays and through the summer - tell them about the DC Free Summer Meals Program, refer them to the searchable map, and tell them to call 211 to find the most convenient location.

U.S. Department of Education Has Upgraded District’s Grantee Status
Last week, Mayor Gray was happy to hear that the U.S. Department of Education is going to remove the "high-risk grantee" designation from grants issued by USDOE to the Office of the State Superintendent of Education (OSSE).
In 2006, USDOE designated DC Public Schools as a "high-risk" grantee on account of systemic problems. Since the DC Public Education Reform Act of 2007, OSSE has been implementing systemic reforms and finding solutions to stated issues in the High-Risk Corrective Action Plan.
Mayor Gray believes the decision to remove the "high-risk grantee" designation "demonstrates the significant progress" the District has made in our efforts to reform and improve our system of public education. He applauded the State Superintendent of Education and the entire OSSE team for "their dedication and commitment to transforming our educational system."
Read the full press release on OSSE's website.
