Meal Program

Lawrence Catholic Academy offers a free breakfast and lunch to all of its students. We are part of the Community Eligibility Provision. The Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) is a provision from the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010 that allows schools to provide free breakfast and lunch to all students.
 
A cold breakfast option is available for students when the school day begins. All lunches include milk. Hot lunches include: milk, fruit, vegetable and dessert. Bag lunches include: sandwich, milk, fruit, chips, cheese stick, and dessert. Students may opt out of taking a breakfast in the morning and may bring their own lunches from home if they’d like.

​However, all LCA students have the option of a free breakfast and lunch everyday! 


Offers Meals at No Cost for Students
 Lawrence Catholic Academy will be participating in the National School Lunch Program and the School Breakfast Program. As part of this program, all schools will offer healthy meals every school day at NO COST to the students due to the implementation of the Community Eligibility Provision for school year 2023-2024. Students will be able to get breakfast and lunch at school without having to pay a fee or submit a household application.
