Join Us for a Summer Kick-off Party on June 5
Students can eat for free all summer long through the Seamless Summer Meal program. All kids ages 18 and under can access free meals at 8 campuses in June and July. To help kick off the summer, you're invited to a special event hosted by our nutrition services team on Monday, June 5 from 10 am - 12:30 pm. Kids eat for free and everyone can enjoy free ice cream and visit with local partners.
We'll also be collecting school supplies with the help of the Georgetown Police Department during the event. Donations will be used to support school supply distributions this fall for families in need. Visit the district's back-to-school page to view campus supply lists and mark your calendars. We hope to see you on June 5!

Your Feedback Requested - Federal Grant Funding
As a public education institution, Georgetown ISD is eligible for federal funding in a number of areas. In preparation for next school year, we’re asking for your feedback to inform how we use these funds related to the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA), the Special Education (IDEA-B), and the Perkins V: Strengthening Career and Technical Education for the 21st Century (CTE). An online survey will remain open through June 6, and we invite you to share your thoughts on any or all of the components included.
