Who the announcement covers

CCSD says all its students at school sites offering in-person instruction can receive free breakfast and lunch during 2026–27. Its Aug. 12 announcement credits participation in the federal Community Eligibility Provision.

Finding menus and help

The district directs families to its parent and student webpages for daily lunch menus. Food Service questions can be sent to myschoolmeals@nv.ccsd.net or handled by phone at 800-819-7556.

A useful distinction

The announcement covers CCSD's school meal program. Families should check directly with their child's school about meal schedules and individual needs. It should not be read as a promise that meals are available at every campus at any hour or that every separate charter or private school follows the same arrangement.

Keep the official contact

CCSD also participates in other federal food programs, but its release does not supply a universal after-school or holiday distribution schedule. Use the Food Service contact for details rather than assuming a regular school-day meal schedule applies during breaks.
