Rantoul City School District 137 issued the following announcement on March 21.
Starting Monday, March 23rd, meals will be ready for pick up from 9:00-10am at each of our schools, RTHS, and The Linden each morning until we return to school on Tues, March 31st.
Meals can only be picked up by car. It is not safe to allow lines to gather as it does not follow the safety guidelines of social distancing. We are very sorry that we cannot allow you to walk up to pick up meals.
When you arrive in your car, stay in your car, keep your window rolled up, and indicate to the volunteer how many meals you need. Meals are only for students aged 18 and younger and only for that day. You will receive a breakfast and a lunch for each child. The plan is to wheel the meals to your car on a cart and walk away. You will roll down your window and take the food. Once your window is rolled up we will retrieve the cart.
Our distribution locations will be at each of our school buildings. RTHS will also have two sites for Rantoul students at RTHS and at The Linden (224 Wheat Ave). You can choose to go to any of the sites below. It does not have to be at your child’s school.
Locations:
Broadmeadow: main entrance under awning on west side of building
Pleasant Acres: circle drive on south side of building, not the main entrance
Northview: main entrance on north side of building
Eastlawn: SOUTH entrance under awning
Eater Jr High: SOUTH side of the school (back of the school) cafeteria door
RTHS: Main door on Sheldon
The Linden: 225 Wheat Ave
Thank you for your patience and understanding, as we will continue to improve this plan as the week moves along.
Medications:
If you need to pick up your child’s medication, please come to your child’s school Mon, March 23rd from 10-12:00. If you are unable to do so, call your child’s school and leave a message. They will reach out to you.
Stay healthy and safe. Wash your hands!
