Community Eligibility Provision (CEP)

Mason County Schools Provide Meals To Students At No Cost
Mason County Schools is pleased to announce that the county will participate in the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) during the 2022-2023 school year providing meals at NO CHARGE for all students enrolled in all schools that participate in the National School Lunch Program or School Breakfast Program. CEP is made possible through the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Special Assistance Certification and Reimbursement Community Eligibility Provision.

All adults, e.g. visitors, teachers, support staff members and administrators of the district must assume full cost of the meal:

  • Breakfast $ 3.00

  • Lunch $3.75

  • Extra Milk $0.25

Due to nation wide supply chain issues, there will be times when we will need to alter menus with short notice. Schools will make menu substitutions based on the products they have available or are able to receive.
