2024-25 Community Eligibility Provision (CEP)
The Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) is a USDA program that allows qualifying schools to serve breakfast and lunch to all enrolled students at no cost. Households do not need to complete a meal benefits application for students attending a CEP school and families cannot be asked to complete a meal benefits application for students attending a CEP school for other education benefits purposes.
If households have other students attending a non-CEP school, they must complete a meal benefits application for their other students if they want to be considered for discounted free or reduced-price meal benefits.
If your student attends one of these schools, they will receive free meals (breakfast and lunch) at school for the 2024-25 school year. The schools below with the asterisk are additions for the 2024-25 school year.
