The New York City Department of Education offers free breakfast, lunch and afterschool meals to all NYC public school students during the school year.
We offer summer meals to anyone under 18-years-old and under between June 27–August 30.
What’s on the Menu Today?
We create our menus and water services to make sure that students get the nutrients they need to think clearly and concentrate on learning. Seeing students succeed in school is what drives our passion to serve high-quality meals every day.
Our goal is to provide nutrient-rich options that students of all ages and backgrounds will love. Our meals maintain high nutrition standards which meet and many times exceed USDA standards for school meals with whole grain rich products, reduced sodium, and only fat-free flavored milk.
We do not use food additives such as artificial colors or flavors, non-nutritious sweeteners, or preservatives. We restrict high fructose corn syrup when we can.
