National School Lunch Program

Provident Charter School is a part of the National School Lunch Program, emphasizing the importance of nutrition. All students can enjoy a quick and nutritious Grab and Go Breakfast daily, providing a great boost for their focus on learning, at no cost for all students. Our menus adhere to the high standards set by the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act, ensuring students have access to nutritious meals every day. Additionally, we’re excited to share that we’ve received a grant to revamp our breakfast offerings for the 2024-2025 school year, focusing on scratch-cooked meals. We also offer a variety of a la carte snacks for sale daily, along with juice or water options. We value our students’ input and regularly incorporate their requests into our menu, putting a fresh spin on entrees that kids love and encouraging them to explore new food varieties.

Applications for Free Or Reduced meals can be filled out at www.schoolcafe.com or www.compass.state.pa.us
