Mt. Vernon City Schools has announced 2024-2025 program year policy for students attending all our schools. Students will now fall under the Community Eligibility Program, which no longer requires students to submit a lunch application in order to qualify for free breakfast and lunch.
All students are entitled to free breakfast and lunch; no applications need to be filled out.
The Federal Income Eligibility Guidelines will no longer be used for determining eligibility. All children are eligible for free breakfast and lunch.
Applications are no longer needed since we are under the Community Eligibility Program. All students receive free breakfast and lunch. We provide FREE meals to all K-12 students, regardless of economic status. Additionally a la carte options are available for purchase at the high school. Meals are provided through Aramark.
