UPDATED: 3:21 pm CDT May 1, 2006

HOUSTON -- Houston-area children can enjoy free, healthy meals this summer.

More than 200 HISD schools will participate in the HISD summer feeding program, which serves meals for those from 1 to 18 years old from June 1 to June 28.

Children are not required to be enrolled in HISD summer school classes nor do they need to show proof of income or age to participate.

Breakfasts will be served from 7:30 to 8:30 a.m., and lunches will be served from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.

HISD meals are nutritionally analyzed to ensure that children receive the vitamins, minerals, and calories required to maintain a balanced diet, according to HISD officials.

To find out which schools are participating, call the HISD Food Services Department at (713) 924-2455.

Last year, the HISD Summer Feeding Program served nearly 2.5 million free meals to Houston's children.
