Welcome to TUSD Food Services!

 

Free Meals at TUSD!

TUSD Families- We are pleased to announce that through the expansion of the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) of the National School Breakfast and Lunch Program, we are now able to provide breakfast and lunch at no charge to all students effective immediately.  All students enrolled at any of our 87 school campuses may receive one breakfast meal and one lunch meal at no charge every school day. All 87 Tucson Unified schools qualify for this program, and household applications for free and reduced priced meals are no longer required.

We look forward to serving your student nutritious meals at school!

For any questions, please contact TUSD Food Services Department at [email protected] or call (520) 225-4700.

 

 

'Tis the Season of Giving! 

Thanks to All for Lunch, a 501c3 nonprofit with the mission to eliminate school lunch debt and fight against childhood food insecurity has generously donated $20,500 to TUSD to assist with meal debt. 

You can make a tax-deductible donation at All for Lunch where 100% of donations made on this portal go directly to TUSD to assist with student meal debt.

Amazing Food Services Staff at Whitmore Elementary

 

Good nutrition and learning go hand in hand!

The Food Services Department is made up of a team of food and nutrition professionals that are dedicated to students' health, well-being, and ability to learn. We support learning by promoting healthy habits for lifelong nutrition and fitness practices.

We know that children need a healthy breakfast and lunch in order to have energy for learning. Food Services staff takes pride and joy in ensuring that all children receive a nutritious and tasty meal at school. Some of our schools participate in the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP), which provides free meals to all students at that school.

60 of our schools qualify for Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) and will provide free meals to all students.



Meals, foods, and beverages sold or served at schools meet state and federal requirements which are based on the USDA Dietary Guidelines. We provide students with access to a variety of affordable and appealing foods that meet their health and nutrition needs.
