- Unanticipated Closure Waivers - Maine has requested waivers to have more flexibility to provide meals to students in Maine. The Richard B. Russell National School Lunch Act contains restrictions during this time of student need for meals. During a public health emergency due to COVID-19, all children 18 years old and younger need to have access to meals. Additionally, this waiver will reduce administrative burdens for districts, SFSP and SSO sponsors serving children 18 and younger in Maine. To address these important issues, the Maine Department of Education has requested waivers from USDA.
