During the weeks of school closures, Fort Hancock ISD schools will offer weekday breakfast and lunch meals for children 18 years of age and under on a drive through basis. Vehicles can pull up from 8:00 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. and receive BOTH breakfast and lunch meals for children at the same time.

LOCATION

Benito Martinez Elementary School Cafeteria
Front of Elementary Parking Lot . 
460 Knox Ave.

UPDATE (effective Monday, March 30, 2020):

Due to new state regulations, those who utilize the grab and go meal service at our site to receive delivery of breakfast and lunch for their children DO NOT need to have the children inside the car. However, they MUST provide one of the following items to receive school meals for children who are not present:

• Official letter/email/electronic school application from school that lists child(ren) enrolled;
• Individual student report card(s);
• Birth certificate for child(ren) not in school; or
• Student ID card(s)

Also, please keep in mind that each child is entitled to only ONE breakfast and ONE lunch meal per weekday; claiming multiple meals at multiple sites for the same child is not permitted.

 We hope this helps ease any difficulties you may have experienced during the school closures, and we encourage everyone to stay safe and healthy at home. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
