Apply for Meal Benefits
Applying for Meal Benefits provides free or reduced-priced breakfast and lunch to qualifying students.
All families are eligible to apply for Meal Benefits, and we encourage those needing financial support to submit an application for the 2026-2027 school year. Completing an application is free, and all submitted information remains confidential within Seminole County Public Schools.
When completing an application, it is important to note:
- Income verification may be required
- All students in a household should be placed on the same application
- Household income for all working adults is required to process the application
- Previous year meal benefits or applications completed before June 30, 2026, expire in mid-September
In addition to free or reduced-priced meals, completing a meal benefits application may also qualify your family for discounted internet services, afterschool-programs, and more.
