One of the bright spots during such a difficult time for our community was seeing Kyle Elementary Principal, Mr. Sopko, show up to support our Food Service Team and our students.

It was clear just how excited he was to see our students. Watching him greet them, talk with them, and simply be present brought a little bit of normalcy and positivity to a challenging situation.

We truly appreciated having Mr. Sopko there—not because he had to be, but because he wanted to be there. Sometimes, simply showing up means more than you know.

Thank you, Mr. Sopko, for showing up for our students and our community when it mattered most! ❤️Kyle PTO

Hashbrown and Egg Casserole, loaded with fluffy eggs, golden hashbrowns, freshly chopped red peppers, creamy melted cheese, and finished with fresh scallions—this is one breakfast that brings BIG flavor to the morning! Tray Talk

Our Food Service Team tested and perfected this recipe over the summer, and today, our students get to enjoy the delicious results!

Summer testing → kitchen perfection → student-approved breakfast!👌Chef Ann Foundation

A HUGE thank you to our incredible Transportation and Food Service team for collaborating to bring FREE meals directly into our community and serve our PTS students!

From loading and organizing meals to traveling throughout the community and making sure our students were taken care of, it truly took a team effort to make this happen.

We are so grateful for everyone who stepped up, worked together, and went the extra mile to make sure our students had access to breakfast and lunch.

Thank you for showing what it means to serve our students and our community! ❤️
