All MPS Students Eligible for Free Meals

Montgomery Public Schools/Child Nutrition Program is participating in the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) of the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act for the 2016-2017 school year.  If your child/children attend any of the schools within Montgomery Public Schools, breakfast and lunch will be available to them at no charge.  All students enrolled in the school system may participate in the School Breakfast Program (SBP) and the National School Lunch Program (NSLP) at no charge to them.

Studies have shown that children who are not hungry perform better in school.  By providing breakfast and lunch to all children at no charge, we are hoping to create a better learning environment for our students.

The school breakfast and lunch that we serve follows the U.S. Department of Agriculture guidelines for healthy school meals.  The Community Eligibility Provision cannot succeed without your support; please encourage your children to participate in the school meal programs.

One breakfast and one lunch meal will be served to all students at no charge regardless of the eligibility status.  Additional student meals will be charged the normal price of $2.50 for student breakfast and $3.75 for Elementary, Junior and High School student lunch.  A la carte item prices are posted on the MPS website under the Child Nutrition Documents.

Faculty meals will remain $1.75 for breakfast and $3.50 for lunch.  Adult visitor meals will remain $2.50 for breakfast and $4.00 for lunch.
