What is CUSD Food Service?
The Cabrillo Food Service Department is a self-supporting
program within the district. These meals are designed to meet 1/3 of the
average child's daily nutritive requirements. CUSD Food Service participates
in the National School Lunch Program.
Without proper nutrition, mental and physical activity would be greatly impaired. It is the responsibility of CUSD Food Service to properly fuel the minds and bodies of our students, assisting the educational process by providing the nutrients necessary for increased mental stamina, attentiveness, and retention. Our state and federal governments exert strict but necessary controls in the how and what portion of serving school meals.
Free or Reduced Price Meal Benefits
Our state and federal governments provide reimbursement
revenues to CUSD Food Service for every complete school meal served. The
amount of this reimbursement depends on the student receiving the meals.
There are three separate eligibility levels: free, reduced, and not eligible. Information on the meal subsidy plan is sent home with every child when
school begins each September, and is part of the enrollment packet given
to every child who enrolls during the school year. Parents may fill out an
application at any time during the school year and return it to their child's
school or mail it to the District office. If the student's family income
meets the government guidelines, a letter is
sent to the family's mailing address notifying the parents that their children
are eligible to receive free or reduced price meals. All information supplied
to the Food Service Department on the application or on supplementary documentation
is kept confidential.
Applications for Free or Reduced Price Meal Benefits
An application for meal benefits can be downloaded from the link below or may be obtained at any school office, lunch room, or at the District Office. Upon request, an application will be mailed to you. Please call the District Office at 650-712-7117 or email the Food Services Department to request an application be mailed to your home. You may return the completed application to the school office, District office or mail to the Cabrillo Unified School District office at 498 Kelly Avenue, Half Moon Bay, CA 94019
