Food & Nutrition

!Notice: FOR ONE DAY ONLY!

Wednesday Nov. 25th, the day before Thanksgiving, MES Curbside meals will be served

from 11am to 12pm not the regular serving time of 12pm until 1pm.

Notice: In-School Meals and drive-through meal service provided free of charge through the USDA's Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) through the 2020-21 School Year.

Union County Public Schools will be offering FREE BREAKFAST and LUNCH at school for students to take to the classroom to eat. Caregivers may also get meals for their children via drive-through service during the Fall 2020 SY.

(Children do not have to be registered UC students to receive meals via drive-through service. Breakfast and Lunch will be served together at the locations and feeding times below. Currently, students do not have to be present in the vehicle with parents to receive meals. Students above the age of 18, who are still enrolled in the K-12 system are also eligible.)

Meals available M-F as drive-through meal pick-up service at:

Morganfield Elementary: 12 p.m. - 1:00 p.m. MES kitchen door behind school. Exception Wed. Nov. 25th 11am-12 pm.

Sturgis Elementary: 11 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. Parent pick-up/drop-off (Door G).

Please note that traffic pattern will follow the same pattern as student pick-up/drop-off, opposite summer meal pick-up. Uniontown Elementary: 11 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. Parent pick-up/drop-off

A la carte items will not be available when school first starts back. A la carte items will be re-introduced as soon as we are sure all students can be served a free meal in the given meal service window.

Students will need to have money in their food service account to purchase a la carte items when they are reintroduced. In an effort to reduce the spread of germs and viruses at the cafeteria Point of Sale, we are asking parents and staff to deposit money on their "My School Bucks" account rather than paying for food items with cash. You can find instruction for depositing money in your account on our website by clicking on "Student Food Account" on the menu top right of this page or you can go directly to the My School Bucks website here: http://myschoolbucks.com

The food service department is able to offer this wonderful benefit through the USDA's

Community Eligibility Provision or CEP program.

It is our privilege to serve the nutritional needs of Union County Students.

On a daily basis, we ensure all meals are not only tasty but also meet the

nutrient requirements of the Healthy Hunger Free Kids Act (HHFKA).

As the largest restaurant in Union County we take pride in serving nearly 3,000 meals

each day school is in session and over 500,000 meals every year.
