DCSS scales back meal delivery
ALBANY, Ga. — The Dougherty County School System is making a change to delivering meals to students in the county.
The school system announcing that delivery would be scaled back from five days a week, to three.
Buses will now run routes only on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.
The school system says the move will help to limit COVID 19 exposure for school nutrition workers while ensuring that students are not going hungry.
“Anything that we can do to keep our people safe and our employees safe, and the community at large safe, that’s what we’re going to do. And so the superintendent is committed to keeping this process effective, but also safe for everybody,” says DCSS District Communications Manager, J.D. Sumner.
The Dougherty County School System previously suspended meal delivery to students after one of the system’s nutrition workers tested positive for COVID 19.
