Cumberland middle and elementary schools have announced its policy for providing free meals to all children served under the National School Lunch and School Breakfast Programs.

The schools will be participating in the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) as implemented under the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010. Enrolled students will be provided a nutritious meal for breakfast and lunch each day at no charge to the household.

Households will not be required to submit a meal application form to receive meals at no charge. Each household will receive a letter informing them of the program, including contact information for any questions.

For more information, contact William Brandt, Food Service coordinator at (804) 492-5201.
