Acadia Parish has decided to stop providing meals to its students after tomorrow.

A release from Superintendent Scott Richard is below:

Following today's "Stay-at-Home Order" by Honorable Governor John Bel Edwards, and, after careful consideration regarding the safety of all stakeholders, the Acadia Parish School System will provide meals tomorrow, Monday - then cease operations until further notice.

We are appreciative of the tremendous efforts of our Child Nutrition Program staff, District Office staff, numerous school-based staff, and our community stakeholders that have provided support for this initiative.

On behalf of the Acadia Parish School Board, we hope that all citizens take the necessary precautions to remain healthy and safe.
