Montana's 2026 Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) is ensuring ALL children and teens across the state have access to healthy, nutritious meals throughout the summer months. Sponsored by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), the program provides free meals to all individuals 18 years old and younger, helping support student wellness and encourage healthy eating habits while school is out of session. 🥪🍓🥦🥛
Families are encouraged to take advantage of the program, which helps strengthen communities and ensures Montana’s youth have dependable access to healthy meals during the summer break.
HEARTle, by The Academy at NHSA, is a daily online word puzzle featuring a Head Start vocabulary word. You get six tries to guess the word of the day. It can be any length, but it’s always inspired by the language we use at Head Start.
Plus, when you (finally) guess correctly, you will get a chance to learn more about the word and – depending on how well you play – get your name on the leaderboard.
