Meals are free for all Massachusetts students for the 24-25 school year, regardless of household income. Students are entitled to one free breakfast and one free lunch each day. Individual milks, second breakfasts or lunches and a la carte items are NOT free and must be purchased. Parents/Guardians should ensure ample funds are in their student's accounts or students may use cash. Accounts can be set up at myschoolbucks.com.

Students must use the PIN pad to receive their meals. This enables CPS to document meals and receive reimbursement from our government.
