Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Who is a parent/guardian according to the USDA?
A: A guardian is the designated primary caregiver for a child. A guardian may be the permanent designated caregiver (i.e. the legally appointed guardian) or the temporary designated caregiver of the child (e.g. a child has been left in the care of their grandparent for the weekend).
Note: A licensed caregiver being paid for childcare (i.e. an individual licensed as a family daycare home or an individual who operates an independent childcare center) does not meet this definition.
Q: Can I send someone to pick up meals on my child's behalf?
A: No, in accordance with USDA regulations, the child(ren)'s parent or guardian as defined above must be present to pick up the meals from a pick-up site.
Q: Do I need to register each time I pick up meals?
A: No, you only need to register your child(ren) once to participate for the entire duration of the program.
Q: Why can't my child participate if they are enrolled in WCPS summer academy?
A: Students enrolled in summer academy/school programs within our school system are provided with breakfast and lunch at all school sites. Because of this, they are not eligible to participate as the USDA defines this as a duplication of meals.
