APS Identifies 80 Sites for Student Meal Pick-ups

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (KRQE) – Albuquerque Public Schools announced Friday Grab and Go meals will be available to all school-age students under the age of 18 as of Monday, March 16 in an effort to minimize social interactions amidst coronavirus concerns.

The 80 sites below have been identified for meal pick-up meals via a drive-through line at the entrance of the participating schools. No one should be entering schools to retrieve food. Students must be present to receive a meal.

On March 20, APS announced nine of the schools would no longer provide meals to be more efficient. Those schools are Alvarado, Cochiti, and Longfellow Elementary Schools and Hayes, Jefferson, McKinley, Taylor, Washington, and Wilson Middle Schools.

Students will not have to go to a school they attend to get meals so they can access the school most convenient for them. The only exemption is New Futures students who will need to access meals at the New Future School exclusively.
