The details
The breakfast and lunches will be provided through the Community Eligibility Provision program. This is a federally funded program that allows qualifying low-income schools to serve free meals to all enrolled students. Families don’t need to apply or provide documentation to receive meals.

What else
Campuses that are not eligible for the program will provide meals to students based on their meal status. Students qualify for either free meals, reduced-cost meals or paid meals.
Students attending schools not eligible for the program and in need of free or reduced-cost meals, can do so if:
- Receiving state-funded benefits, such as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program or Temporary Assistance for Needy Families
- Enrolled in foster care or are homeless
- Approved by AISD’s application for free or reduced-cost meals.
For the 2024-25 school year, 77 AISD campuses were able to provide free breakfast and lunch through the program, as previously reported by Community Impact.
Aug. 19 is the first day of the 2025-26 school year.
