drop-off diner - meals for students

Nome Public Schools will be debuting the School Bus Drop Off Diner starting Monday, March 23rd to ensure our children receive meals during the school shutdown. Meals are provided for children in Kindergarten through 12th grade ONLY (we are not providing meals for children 5 and under at this time).

The buses will run along all three routes (red, blue and green) each day and deliver breakfast and lunch together in a drop-off bag. Children must be present to receive meals.

​Children/parents are asked to stay a safe distance apart (6 feet) from children/parents from other families while waiting at the stop - please arrive no more than 5 minutes early to avoid large groups. The buses will be at each stop for 15 minutes.

If your child is ill, the parent is ill and cannot accompany a young child to the bus stop, or the household is quarantined, you are asked to call the school secretary between 8am and 11am to request door to door delivery. Delivery will occur after 11am and will depend upon meal availability. (NES - 443-5299, NBHS 443-5201, ACSA 443-6198).

Please be patient with us - we will adjust the routes/times/number of meals available throughout the week in order to make this process as smooth and quick as possible. NPS cares deeply for the well-being of our children, and appreciates the community's support in this difficult time. We are STRONG, TOGETHER.
