Mothers providing lunch for Kent students amid strike react to district's announcement
For the first time since the teacher strike began, the Kent School District said it will start offering free meals for students on Wednesday, if the strike lasts that long. Up until now, two mothers have been organizing free meal services for kids.
“Finally,” said relieved Jennifer Liggett Giampapa, after she heard the news from KSD.
"We're excited that the district is doing this and hopes that we can actually partner with them to continue to serve more students,” said Giampapa.
Giampapa and fellow KSD mother Meg Heron were featured on KING 5 on Monday, when they started their own free lunch program for students, because the district didn't have any plans in place at the time to serve meals.
