Dallas ISD will give away a three-day supply of meals for each child on Monday, Nov. 23, to cover part of the Thanksgiving break, the district's Food and Child Nutrition Services department announced Tuesday.

Each eligible child gets three breakfasts and three lunches at no cost. The meals are for children 18 and younger, and for people 21 and younger with disabilities, according to the district's announcement. The child has to be in the car at pickup, and food is handed out only while supplies last.

The meals are packed to be heated at home, and each bag carries printed cooking directions.
