Food Rankings Results: CHILDREN AT RISK, Kroger honor Aldine ISD and Houston ISD in 2023 Food Rankings

Houston area schools continue to lead the way in providing nutritious meals and snacks throughout the school day.

For many of these children, meals eaten at school are the only substantial meals they will receive during the day. School districts are critical players in implementing school food programs – yet some districts are doing better than others in providing breakfast, lunch, and after-school meals to students in need. With nearly 1.3 million food-insecure children in Texas, it is imperative that school districts do a much better job at ensuring our children are consistently getting nutritious meals.
