What about Food Service during the school closing?

With the recent Statewide school closure, the Milton Public Schools is working to support our food insecure students.

Director of Food Services Jackie Morgan and her team began planning as soon as a possible school closure was discussed. Their goal is to support  students during this national health crisis who rely on school breakfast and lunch each week, in a way that is efficient and easy for families while also maintaining safe practices for staff.

After serving to-go breakfasts and lunches on designated days since March 18th, the Milton Public Schools is moving to a new format to better accommodate family’s schedules.

Starting on Wednesday, March 25th, families can pick up 5 days of breakfasts and lunches at one time. Pick up times are 8-9am and 5-6pm at both the Tucker School (behind the school) and Milton High School (on the Canton Ave side of building).

This change to one day of distribution is a safer way to get more food into the homes of our food insecure students, while also minimizing contact between the MPS Food Service staff and and MPS families.   

These FREE 5 day to-go bags will contain low sugar cereal, shelf stable milk, sunbutter and jelly sandwiches, grilled cheese sandwiches, fresh fruit, fresh vegetables, and snack bags, with enough food for five breakfasts and 5 lunches.  ANY Milton family is welcome pick up a weekly to-go bag as the goal is to support any food insecure student.

This service will be available throughout the school closure. 

If you have a hardship and are in need of more convenient hours for pick up, please contact Food Service Director Jackie Morgan via email at jmorgan@miltonps.org or phone at 617-898-1051. MPS families in need of support during this time are also encouraged to email MPS Family Outreach Liaison Marti O’Keefe McKenna at mmckenna@miltonps.org.
