​HONOLULU –The Hawaii State Department of Education (DOE) is announcing its locations for the summer food service program, Seamless Summer Option (SSO). Beginning in early June, the SSO will be available at 59 public schools without charge to all children 18 years and under. Meals will be served at select locations Monday through Friday (except June 11 and July 4).

Use the interactive map below for SSO locations in Hawaii. Click the dots for school name, phone number, and meal service times.

The SSO is funded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture and was established to ensure that low-income children continue to receive nutritious meals when school is not in session. An eligible school must have 50 percent or more of its regular enrolled students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunches and some type of summer program on campus, but meal recipients do not have to be enrolled in those programs.

“It’s our honor and privilege to continue serving families during the summer with nutritious meals that meet federal guidelines,” says Ray L’Heureux, assistant superintendent for school facilities and support services.

The Seamless Summer Option is an equal opportunity provider. For more information, log onto www.fns.usda.gov/sfsp.
