Lunch on UIs

Lunch on Us

June 22 - August 6
Monday - Thursday

Charles County Public Schools (CCPS) will offer its Lunch on Us free summer meals program this summer at four designated school sites. The program will operate June 22 through Aug. 6, Monday through Thursday, for children ages 2 to 18.

Meal sites open from June 22 through Aug. 6. Sites are closed on Fridays.

Lunch on Us provides hot meals for children to consume on site. Children do not have to be CCPS students to receive a meal and do not have to show any form of identification at the meal sites. However, to receive a meal the child must be present. CCPS food and nutrition services (FNS) staff members will oversee the operation of each meal site, and students will be asked to consume the meal in the school cafeteria.

Due to program restrictions, meals cannot be taken to go and cannot be shared with adults who are not eligible for the program. The sites were chosen based on past site participation, need and geographical location.

Meal sites will be open during the following times:

Eva Turner Elementary School – 12:30 to 1:30 p.m.
Westlake High School – 12:30 to 1:30 p.m.
Thomas Stone High School – 12:30-1:30 p.m.
Henry E. Lackey High School – 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.

Meals to Go truck

Meals on the Move

June 24 - August 7
Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays

Charles County Charles County Public Schools (CCPS) is offering the Meals on the Move program this summer. The program will run June 24 through Aug. 7 at three designated sites in Charles County. The meal truck will be operated by CCPS food and nutrition services (FNS) staff.

At the sites, children ages 2 to 18 can receive free cold breakfasts and lunches to go for multiple days. The CCPS food truck will visit the sites on specific days to distribute meals in rural areas as determined by the USDA. Meals will be provided on a first-come, first-served basis at all sites and while supplies last.

The Meals on the Move schedule is as follows.

These sites were identified as rural areas within Charles County, which is a component of the Meals on the Move program requirement of USDA. Families who live in areas near the sites are encouraged to obtain free meals through the program this summer.

To receive meals at these sites for children who attend CCPS, a parent/guardian must be present during pick up. The parent/guardian will be asked to present identification from ParentVue for their child(ren). Parents can either show the “Student List” screen in the ParentVue app, or a copy of their child’s most recently issued CCPS report card. This is a USDA requirement and regardless if the child is with the parent or not.

Non-CCPS enrolled students, students who are not school aged, are home schooled or live out of county can pick up meals at the sites. However, CCPS FNS staff will ask the parent/guardian to complete an initial registration form required by the USDA. Any information collected by FNS staff is kept confidential.

Meals on the Move does not have a set menu.
