Children under the age of 18 can get free meals at participating Tuscaloosa City Schools this month, regardless of their affiliation with any school in the system.

In a Thursday press release, TCS said it will offer free meals to children under 18 through June 27th as part of a federally funded program to make sure students have nutritious options to eat even when school is out.

There is no registration or identification required to eat - breakfast will be served each weekday from 7:45 until 8:30 a.m., and lunch will be available from 10:30 until noon.
