All Dothan City School students will receive free meals through the end of the 2020 calendar year.

Parents must complete a DCS Lunch Form for students.

U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Sonny Perdue announced the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) will extend several flexibilities through as late as December 31, 2020. The flexibilities allow summer meal program operators to continue serving free meals to all children into the fall months. This unprecedented move will help ensure – no matter what the situation is on-the-ground – children have access to nutritious food as the country recovers from the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Alabama Department of Human Resources (DHR) announced it will issue Pandemic EBT benefits to eligible students in Alabama. 

Pandemic EBT benefits will be provided to households that have children in grades K-12 who have temporarily lost access to free or reduced-price school meals due to the COVID-19 pandemic. These benefits are designed to cover meals missed since the onset of statewide school closures on March 18th through the end of the school year on May 29th. 

The Pandemic EBT program includes current SNAP recipients, as well as any other children who are eligible for a free or reduced-price meal at school. Families interested in enrolling, would need to fill out Dothan City Schools Free & Reduced meal application and DCS Child Nutrition Program will process your application. You can find this application at www.myschoolapps.com
