Nourishing the body and mind at DCS
boy eating lunchDid you know that hunger affects concentration, memory, mood and motor skills? Our students need to have full bellies in order to learn best. We're pleased to continue to offer our breakfast and lunch program to all students FREE OF CHARGE. Because of our dedicated food service staff and our partnership with Rock on Café and Broome-Tioga BOCES, we qualify for the CEP (Community Eligibility Program) through at least 2026. Although breakfast and lunch are free for everyone, our eligibility for this program and others is dependent on the number of students qualified through Medicaid and SNAP. So, when you see those applications come home for free/reduced lunch, please fill them out. If you need help filling out the forms, contact the main office. Let's make sure that our kids' basic needs are met.
