Wichita Public Schools Summer Food Program begins June 1

The Wichita school district says children and teens 18 and younger will have access to free grab-and-go meals, available for pickup on Mondays and Wednesdays, starting June 1 and running through July as part of the WPS (Wichita Public Schools) Summer Food Program.
