Fulton County Schools will give out meals this week to families who place their orders today.

Classes resumed Tuesday online-only, following a two-week holiday break in which COVID-19 cases surged across metro Atlanta.

The Fulton district is accepting online orders from parents who want to receive a free meal kit for their child while they’re learning virtually. The orders must be made by 11:59 p.m. today.

The food will be distributed from 9:10 to 11:30 a.m. Thursday at schools.
