LEON COUNTY, Fla.(WTXL) — The Leon County School District is launching a one stop meal pick-up and mobile meal service to better assist parents and students.
The district will be participating in the USDA Summer Food Service Program at Fairview Middle School starting Tuesday.

Officials say buses will leave from Fairview to deliver meals in the 32304 and 32305 Zip codes.
Both of these programs will be launching on Tuesday, September 29.
