Robinson ISD will start serving free breakfast and lunch to all enrolled students beginning on Monday, November 2, 2020.
Recently, the USDA passed a waiver to allow free meals under the Seamless Summer Option for the remainder of the 2020-2021 school year. A meal must always have a fruit or vegetable on the tray with two other components or it will be priced as ala carte. Parents/Guardians will still be responsible for charges on their student's account for ala carte items such as bottled water, cookies or ice cream.
Students who are attending as virtual learners can pick up meals at Robinson Intermediate, which is located at 605 S. Old Robinson Road. Meals will be served from 12:30 p.m. – 1:30 p.m. each school day.
The curbside meal program is also available to other children in the community that are 18 years of age or younger.
For any additional information please contact Alma Ramirez 254-662-5000 ext. 212.
Robinson ISD is an equal opportunity provider.
At a noon meeting today, the Board of Trustees approved an updated school calendar for 2020-21. The following was done to allow for more planning time for staff during this extraordinary year to ensure the best possible educational experience for our students:
November 9th will be a student holiday/staff planning (11/10/20 remains a PLC planning/late arrival for students day)
February 8th will be a student holiday/staff planning (2/9/21 will be a regular student day)
April 12th will be a student holiday/staff planning (4/13/21 will be a regular student day)
Thank you for your patience and understanding with these changes!
