Hi Families,
Here are a few resources you may find helpful as you support your children in their learning at home. Keep checking this page for more resources.
Free Breakfast and Lunch
Hudsonville Public Schools will offer free breakfast and lunch for children in need during the statewide school closure. ANY child age 0-18 (or up to age 26, for young adults with special needs) can get meals on weekdays beginning Tuesday, March 17, 2020, through April 3, 2020. Lunch will be offered at the following locations from 11:00 am to 12:30 pm:
- Hudsonville High School – 5037 32nd Ave, Hudsonville
- Riley Middle School – 2745 Riley Street, Hudsonville
- Baldwin Middle School – 3835 Baldwin Street, Hudsonville
- Alward Elementary School – 3811 Port Sheldon St, Hudsonville
You may drive-up or walk to any site, simply grab and go. Breakfast will be available at the same time for those families who wish to take it home for future––– use. Please also note that a parent may pick up meals for children at home. The schools will actually still be closed, but the meals will be served in their parking lots. We may open up additional sites if needed, or alter locations based on demand.
