Vermont Announces Free School Meals

The Times Argus covered yesterday's announcement of free school meals in this recent article:

"Thousands of Vermont students are returning to classrooms this week newly eligible for free breakfast and lunch at school after an expansion of the program during the last legislative session.

Gov. Peter Shumlin and Education Secretary Armando Vilaseca joined with anti-hunger advocates and school officials Tuesday at Barre Town Elementary School to highlight the expanded program."
