Norman Indian Education Parent Committee

Children living within the Chickasaw Nation boundaries and Seminole County can have shelf-stable meals delivered every two weeks. Participants do not have to have tribal affiliation to participate. Families will qualify by meeting specific income requirements.

Each child enrolled in the program will receive 10 breakfasts and 10 lunches (20 meals in each box). The boxes will be shipped directly to participant homes.

Applications will be accepted from May 1 through June 30. Children will receive boxes between June 1 and Aug. 1. During the application period, it is dependent on approval from the Oklahoma State Department of Education and the timing of our ability to process the application.

Norman Rotary Club President Liz McKown and Norman Public Schools Director of Instructional Technology & Libraries Amanda Kordeliski stopped by FOX 25 to talk about the upcoming Storypalooza reading festival and invite families to be part of this brand-new community event.

Storypalooza is a free, family-friendly literacy festival happening Saturday, March 28 at the Norman Public Schools Center for Arts & Learning. The event will feature guest readers, authors, illustrators, hands-on art activities, and interactive story experiences designed to make reading fun for students of all ages. Families can come and go throughout the day, explore different sessions, and even participate in activities focused on helping caregivers support reading at home. Spanish-language sessions will also be available.

Everyone is invited to attend this free community celebration of stories, creativity, and imagination.

Congratulations to Greg Stroud!
