School may be out of session, but some districts in the Fox Valley will have free meals available for children throughout the summer months.

In the Appleton Area School District, students 18 and younger are eligible for free meals during summer school. They don't need to sign up or apply, according to the information on the district website.

Students are welcome to visit participating sites for breakfast and lunch Monday through Friday until July 8, the last day of summer school. Meals won't be served on July 4.

The meals must be eaten on site and served directly to students, the district website says, per federal regulations. A menu is available online.

Adults 19 and older can purchase meals using cash only. Breakfast costs $2.60 and lunch is $4.65. Parents do not need to buy a meal for themselves to sit with their students.

Here's a breakdown of the times and places for free meals in Appleton, Menasha and Neenah.
