All Chicago Students Will Get Free Meals This School Year

Starting in September, all students in the Chicago Public Schools system, regardless of income, will be given free school meals, WBEZ reports.

This will be the first year that all schools, including more well-off ones, will join in. The district had rejected participating in the federal program that allows high-poverty school systems to offer free meals to all students in 2011, but 400 schools participated last year.

Participation has already brought benefits to Chicago....
