2020 seniors in second grade
Hawks Lunch Bunch summer plans are set!!
We have been working with the G. C. School District to make the transition from “Yellow Meals On Wheels” to “Hawks Lunch Bunch “ meals for the summer lunch program.
Here is the current schedule:
New Haven and Ridgway meals will be delivered by the school van. New Haven meals will be at your regular pick up point by 11:00am. The van will then go to Ridgway to deliver meals at the ball field by approximately 12:00noon.
Equality Fire Dept. will be picking up and taking Equality’s meals to their Fire Station for pick up by approximately 11:30.
Old Shawneetown meals will be delivered by Nell Rosser, Village Clerk. Time for that delivery will be 11:30 to 11:45am.
The Country Route meals that G.C. Resource Officers deliver, now will be continued with Liz Hood of Egyptian Health Dept.. Time for delivery will try to stay the same as the regular schedule.
New Shawneetown meals will not be distributed on the Mall. They will be handed out at our regular site: 188 Church St., Ohio Valley General Baptist Fellowship Hall in Shawneetown. The time for pickup meals will be 12:00noon.
Beginning May 18 the meals will be delivered or handed out Monday and Wednesday each week through August 12. Monday each will receive 2 meals and on Wednesday 3 meals will be received.
We are hopeful this transition will go smoothly. Your patience will be greatly appreciated!
This a lunch program only, no breakfast will be served during the summer.
Our menu will not be posted daily due to the availability of products changing.
Please be assured that all the meals will be made to the meal plan established by the State Board of Education.
We are looking forward to serving Gallatin County this summer.
If you have any questions please message our page, call Anita Golden, Site Coordinator at 618-525-4128, or your delivery person.
Have a great and healthy summer!
Pre-K screenings:
I have had many questions regarding pre-k screenings. Beginning next week we will be making phone calls to parents that had called to make an appointment for their child to be screened. Due to Covid 19 restrictions, we will do a questionnaire over the phone for the screening instead of in person. Your child must be 3 years old already to participate in this. We do plan to have our fall screening for kids that aren’t 3 yet. If you haven’t made an appointment yet and would like to, please leave me a message on this GCES page with your name and phone number along with your child’s name and date of birth. Please try to answer next week when you receive your phone call. The teachers are working from home and will be making a trip to the school to make the phone calls. If you don’t answer, it may be the next day before they can get back to you. Thank you!
