(Clothing, food, etc.)David Crockett High School is working with students and families to ensure that all needs (clothing, food, etc.) are being met during this time of school closure. Students, please click on the link and fill out the form. A DCHS counselor will follow up on all requests received.
Washington County Schools has revised our school system feeding plan during our closure to better assist our families. We will be decreasing the number of days parents need to come to pick up food while increasing the number of meals being provided to each child per visit. We will be handing out 3 breakfasts and 3 lunches at each location per child on the days the sites are open. Pick-up will be from 9:00 am till 12:00 pm.
Please remember that ANY child ages 0-17 years of age may get a free meal, regardless if they are a Washington County Schools student or not. Additionally, federal guidelines dictate that the minor child must be present to receive the free breakfast and lunch. Each school site will feature drive-up, “curb-side service” where cars will drive to the pick-up area and have the meals handed to the child instead of the children coming into the school.
The four sites serving breakfast and lunch on Mondays and Wednesdays are as follows:
1: David Crockett High School, 684 Old State Rte 34, Jonesborough, TN 37659
2: Daniel Boone High School, 1440 Suncrest Dr, Gray, TN 37615
3: Jonesborough Middle School, 308 Forest Dr, Jonesborough, TN 37659
4: Boones Creek Elementary School, 132 Highland Church Rd, Johnson City, TN 37615The four sites serving breakfast and lunch on Tuesdays and Thursdays are as follows:
1: West View Elementary School, 2847 Old State Route 34, Limestone, TN 37681

3: Fall Branch Elementary School, 1061 TN-93, Fall Branch, TN 37656
