The U.S. Department of Agriculture has again extended the free school meals program to students every school day (remote & hybrid) through the remainder of the 2020-21 school year. Parents who would like to request meals for their child(ren) on a remote day must pre-order (link below).
We also encourage families who benefit from the Free & Reduced Meals program in a typical year to complete the application as it will affect their status at the start of the next school year. Learn more, here.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture has extended the free school meals program until December 31, 2020, or until the funds appropriated by Congress are exhausted. This means that the Fairport School Nutrition Program will offer free school meals to all children in the community, age 18 and under, regardless of eligibility, both in school and for pick-up on scheduled school days only.
Curbside pick up of pre-ordered meals will be offered daily from 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at the following three locations:
- Brooks Hill School
- Dudley School
- Fairport High School
One breakfast and one lunch will be provided per child. Parents/guardians requesting a meal on the day in which remote learning (hybrid or full virtual) is occurring must preorder here:

Our current lunch menu can be viewed here: https://www.fairport.org/departments/food-services/lunch-menus/
In the event the free emergency meal program ends, we will transition back to paid, free and reduced status using meal applications. We encourage families to apply for Free and Reduced Price meals, if they have not done so already, to ensure your child continues to receive free-and-reduced meals. If a child does not have a current application, they will be charged full price for meals. Students may still add money to their accounts to purchase a la carte milk or snacks if offered and any money currently in accounts will remain and can be used to purchase a la carte, milk and/or meals when the free program ends.
We will share any changes to the program with district families. Congress may also appropriate more money to feed students past December 31, 2020.
