Manhattan-Ogden USD 383 has been providing free meals for children during the COVID-19 pandemic. That will continue but the schedule for distributing the meals will change to help increase the school district's social distancing.

According to USD 383 beginning Monday, April 13, there will only be meal pick ups on Mondays and Wednesdays. Mondays there will be a hot lunch to pick up with a cold breakfast, but in addition participants will also pick up a cold lunch for Tuesday with one additional breakfast.

On Wednesdays there will a hot lunch to pick up with a cold breakfast, and in addition a cold lunch for Thursday and Friday with two additional breakfasts.

All locations, both school and mobile feeding sites, will only distribute meals on Mondays and Wednesdays. 

In an effort to help maintain proper social distancing, is possible, have either a front passenger seat empty or have your trunk open as a place for us to put the meals. This way staff and volunteers can better maintain the recommended amount of spacing for you and themselves. 

For families that walk or ride bicycles you can bring a way to carry the multiple days meals such as a wagon, basket or backpack.
