Welcome to Child Nutrition

PLEASE NOTE!! IF APPLYING FOR THE 2023/2024 SCHOOL YEAR, YOU MUST WAIT TO APPLY UNTIL AFTER AUGUST 6, 2023 WHEN OUR 2022-2023 INFORMATION IS DONE ROLLING OVER. Questions please call 323-4090.
School meals are no longer free for all students during the 2022-23 school year.
The waivers that provided free meals to all students have expired and Congress did not give USDA the authority to provide meals to all students at no cost. These applications greatly assist the district in receiving other federal funding, including Title I funding. Meal applications can also benefit families by reducing the cost of activity fees, ACT/SAT testing fees, along with other cost-saving benefits.
Ala carte items will still be an additional purchase at schools offering this option. Menus can be found at https://bismarckschools.mealviewer.net/ and are subject to change based on product availability.
The BPS Child Nutrition Department believes that good nutrition is a key ingredient to your child’s learning and well-being. Our mission is to provide healthy meals at an affordable price to all BPS students. Our hard-working staff of 130 members serves over 10,000 meals each day, ensuring that each student is treated with dignity and respect. We believe that teamwork and communication are essential to our daily operational success.
