CVUSD Families: Please Complete the "More than a Meal" Application
School meals for the 2025-2026 school year will be available to all CVUSD TK-12 students at no charge.
Although all students will receive free meals through the duration of this school year, we request for all families to please complete the Free / Reduced Meal Application for the 2025-2026 School Year - available online here. A PDF of this application is also available here.
The Free / Reduced Meal Application affects a variety of areas unrelated to school meals, including school funding, college application fees, SAT fees, bus passes and more. Even if your child does not plan to eat school lunches, it is important to fill out this form to help ensure our schools and families receive the available resources.
If you have any questions or need assistance completing your application, please call the Child Nutrition Department at (805)498-4557 x7530. Additional information is also available on our Child Nutrition webpage.
