But in order to get them you have to congregate. :\
Given they aren't checking ID's, or taking payment, and that schools tend to have a decent amount of open space, it's probably one of the safer options.
One of those things I wish could out last this virus. We'd be so much better off as a society if we could at least keep our people fed. The comments in here seem a little negative currently but this is great news. Think of all the people in NYC who didn't have access to clean and regular food before the virus.

Also no kosher option. Still Halal and Vegetarian options available, so clearly some thought given and overlooked. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_New_York_City
Most vegetarian meals should be kosher, right? And I believe there are exceptions for unusual circumstances in the rules.
