Welcome to P.C.S.D. Child Nutrition Services!

INFORMATION FOR BREAKFAST AND LUNCH DURING SCHOOL DISMISSAL COVID-19.

Provo City School District is currently supplying our student community with Grab and Go Meals for breakfast (8:00 am to 9:00 am) and lunch (11:00 am to 12:00 pm). There is no charge for students 0-18 years of age at any of our schools. At the following schools: Amelia Elementary, Franklin Elementary, Independence High, Provo Peaks Elementary, Provost Elementary, Spring Creek Elementary, Sunset View Elementary, Timpanogos Elementary, and Provo High please just drive up and request the amount of sacks you need to feed your family. All children do not need to be in the car and you do not need to go to each of your students schools to pick up your families meals. You need to only go to one school above. If your school is not listed above please know that at least one student should be enrolled at that school in order to pick up your families meals. We understand it may be difficult for our students who are bussed to get to their home school. Please just make the cafeteria staff aware of your needs. We are here to help our students stay healthy during this time. If your student has allergies and is accommodated with special meals throughout the regular school year please reach out to your kitchen manager and make them aware that you will be picking up meals for your student and when. Because this first week was a new experience we did not post a menu. Starting with next week (3/23) menus will be posted. Please look at your student menu under "Summer Meals" .

To all our community, your health and well being, as well as that of our employees and the broader community is our priority. If you have any of the symptoms of Covid-19, or have been asked to self quarantine please send someone outside of your household to pick up your meals.

We are pleased to offer the ability to apply for Free and Reduced Priced Meals online! The process is SAFE, SECURE, PRIVATE, and AVAILABLE anytime! Printable confirmation is available, after the application has been processed, referenced as you apply online. Meal applications will still be downloadable from our website (July through May). Paper forms are also available (July-May) at school main offices and the district office - only ONE complete meal application is needed per household.

This year our program not only won the medal but won overall in the category of Education and received the BOSS statue. We are honored to be it's recipient.  This statewide award is given to outstanding businesses, programs, groups, or individuals. More than one hundred judges scrutinize the nominations for the Best of State Award. The judges sought out individuals, businesses and organizations that excel in their endeavors, use innovative approaches, and make Utah a better place to live.

Jon M. Huntsman Jr., former Governor of Utah said, "Best of State recognizes those who are excelling and surpassing all else and who are the best of the best in their respective fields."

The Child Nutrition Program is thrilled and honored to win the Best of State award for the ninth consecutive year. We are constantly trying to enhance the already nutritious and healthy meals served in Provo Schools, and to continue our yearly themed activities to increase the activity of the students. Studies show that children are better able to learn after eating a nutritious meal, and our dedicated Nutrition team is happy to do their part in helping each student be fit, healthy, and ready to succeed in school. We are proud of our Child Nutrition Program as we strive to continue to promote healthy lifestyles that will have life-long benefits.
