Lets' Get Ready for Game WEEK!
Hoisington Middle School is participating in the Food 4 Kids program. This program is designed to help students in need have food to get them through the weekend. Please review the following stipulations for your student to remain in the program:
This food is provided by the Kansas Food Bank, and is meant to be eaten at home by students in need.
If your student receives multiple bags, it is meant for their siblings and not to be shared with their classmates.
Bags should be taken home each week and not left in lockers.
Failure to follow these rules will result in removal from the program.
If you would like your student to benefit from this program, please contact Katelyn Milsap at kmilsap@usd431.net or 620-653-4951 ext. 3023. If at any time in the year you no longer wish to receive bags, please request removal from the program as soon as possible.
