The Child Nutrition Department is excited to announce that starting TOMORROW we will be offering curbside pick-up of the grab-n-go meals. You can just pull up to the curb by the building entrance, let the staff know how many meals you need, and we will bring them out to you.
Also starting tomorrow there will be some rule and regulation changes that will make the program more accessible to families.
• Any child between the ages of 0 to 18 is now eligible to pick up meals.
• The child does not need to attend the Harrisburg School District to be eligible to pick up meals.
• The child does not need to be present to pick up a meal.
This meal program is for the benefit of the children in and around the Harrisburg School District. Meals that are taken are to be consumed by the children in the household. Do not ask for meals that are intended to be eaten by adults.
😎 It's a beautiful day! Enjoy the sun, and take care of yourself.

🔵 This is especially true with high quantities of recipients on a single email such as district communication emails. It is important to allow both hsdnoreply@harrisburg.k12.sd.us and harrisburg.school@harrisburg.k12.sd.us in the settings of your email account in order to receive district communications via email.

We will start our distance learning journey tomorrow. Below is a link to what is called a Smore, similar to a webpage, that has learning boards for grades JrK through 5th grade. The learning boards have activities and lessons for Wed.-Fri. of this week. Each week a new Smore with new learning boards will be sent to you. If you have any questions about the learning boards or can’t access the Smore or links to the learning boards, please contact your child’s teacher or school. https://www.smore.com/6aqx7-distance-learning
