Students in Arcadia can get free groceries at the Raider Market. A lot of kids do—not only because there’s a huge need, but because it’s normalized and a simple part of the school day.
The Feed My People Food Bank delivers food to the middle school every couple of weeks, providing consistent access to nutritious food, which reduces hunger-related distractions, boosts energy levels, and improves focus in the classroom.
