Update on Schools’ Summer Meal Program

SUMMER MEAL PROGRAM IMPORTANT UPDATE

St. Mary’s County Public Schools would like to inform the community that Leonardtown Middle School’s registration for summer meals is temporarily closed for new participants due to an overwhelming response. Families who have already registered for this location are unaffected and may continue to pick up meals as scheduled.

Those still seeking summer meal services are encouraged to register at other nearby participating sites. See below for the list of locations and registration details. Or go here.

Important Reminder:

Participants must pick up meals only at the site for which they are registered. If you arrive at a site where you are not registered, you will be redirected to your designated site. This policy ensures we can effectively manage resources and provide meals to all registered participants without disruption. The summer meal distribution begins Tuesday, June 17, 2025.
