A food service employee packaged summer meals last year for students. The district served 25,000 meals throughout the summer, an increase of nearly 6,000 from the year prior.

The Ephrata School District received a $30,000 donation of a tray sealer from United Way of King County last summer. The machine allows food service employees to create pre-packaged, ready-to-heat meals for students to grab.
EPHRATA — The Ephrata School District will again offer free summer meals to all children 18 and younger — including those who do not attend Ephrata schools – through a mix of on‑site service and grab‑and‑go meal boxes funded entirely by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Summer Food Service Program.
