Why aren't meals free to all students at my campus?

During the pandemic, schools were able to offer no cost meals to all students due to temporary program flexibilities provided by the federal government. These flexibilities have expired, and the U.S. Congress did not provide funding in this year’s budget to allow schools to serve free meals to all students in the 2022-2023 school year.

Your school nutrition team looks forward to serving healthy, balanced meals to every student in the new school year.
These meals offer a good source of nutrition for children.
