HOUSTON -- Even though the last day of school in the Houston School District was Thursday, students will still be able to get free meals, KPRC Local 2 reported.

Beginning June 4, any child under 18 years old can go to any HISD school and receive a free breakfast and free lunch, thanks to a summer food program.

Students do not have to attend summer school or be an HISD student to receive the free meals.

Call 211 to find out where the meals will be served.

Approximately 25 percent of children in Harris County are living below the poverty line.
