Kellogg School District Expands Free Meal Program to All Schools Through CEP

The Kellogg School District is excited to announce that all KSD schools are now covered under the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) grant, ensuring that every student in every building receives free meals, both breakfast and lunch, under this provision at the following schools:

  • Canyon Elementary

  • Pinehurst Elementary

  • Kellogg Middle School

  • Kellogg High School

What’s Free for Students Under CEP

All students at KSD schools now receive, at no cost:

  • Breakfast

  •  Lunch

No applications are required, and no student pays for meals—every student eats free, regardless of family income.

What is NOT Automatically Free

The CEP program covers regular meals only. Extra items (sometimes called “à la carte”) are still available for purchase, including:

  • Milk (when purchased separately)

  • Second servings

  • Bottled drinks

  • Snacks (chips, cookies, etc.)

  • Ice cream or specialty items

What This Means for Students

  • No money needed for daily breakfast or lunch

  • No free/reduced meal applications required

  • Every student receives the same meals, with no distinctions
