Cartersville Schools Offer Meals For All Students

CARTERSVILLE, GA – Cartersville Schools are making sure all students have enough to eat this school year, as they go back to school on a hybrid system.

The school system is offering both hot and cold meals to all students, regardless of where they are learning this year. Meals will be served at school on days when students are present. For the first few weeks, students will eat in their classrooms and the schools will assess as the year progresses whether it is safe to eat in the cafeterias.

Every Monday during the hybrid schedule, the schools will distribute meals based on their eligibility status. If a student was eligible for free or reduced lunch last year, families will need to submit a new application this year at myschoolapps.com.

The school system will also have dinner meals available for purchase during the hybrid schedule. The menu will change each week and updates will be posted on the website weekly. Dinner is $25 and includes enough food for four. The menu can be viewed at cartersvilleschools.org/nutrition.

Meal prices are as follows: For CPS and CES, breakfast is $1.25 and lunch is $2.25. For CMS, breakfast is $1.25 and lunch is $2.50. For CHS, breakfast is $1.50 and lunch is $2.50.

For all schools, reduced price breakfast is $0.30 and lunch is $0.40.
