WVDE State Policy 4321.1 – Standards for School Nutrition
Wood County Schools Wellness Policy 5139 (What can you serve at school parties)
We recognize that hungry children cannot learn. The first step is ensuring that all students begin the school day with a nutritious breakfast at home or at school.
Breakfast is available to all Wood County students FREE each school day. No advance registration is necessary; your child can attend every day or only occasionally.
School Breakfast is an ideal solution on mornings when kids are running late or parents have early commitments. Whatever the reason, if breakfast at home is not convenient, please take advantage of breakfast here at school.
We are pleased to inform you that Students in Wood County will have the opportunity to eat breakfast and lunch at school at no cost through a program called the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) for School Year 2024-25. The CEP was enacted as a result of the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act and provides universal meal service to children in high-poverty areas.
What does this mean for your student(s) attending Wood County Schools?
Great news for your students! All enrolled students in the Wood County School System are eligible to receive a healthy breakfast and lunch at school at no charge to your household each day of the 2024-25 school year. No further action is required of you. Your child(ren) will be able to participate in these meal programs without having to pay a fee or submit an application.
Additional meals as well as milk for students bringing a cold lunch and extra milk will be available for purchase to students. Charging the sale of these items will not be permitted.
