Free and Reduced Lunch Application
Even though the State of Maine has agreed to fund breakfast and lunch for all Maine public school students, if a student qualifies for free or reduced lunch, federal funding will continue for those students as it did pre-pandemic to offset the cost of meals. This demographic data also informs our school funding through the state and helps pay for programming - including Title 1 Literacy and Math - here at CPS.
Even if you think your family may not qualify, we appreciate you taking the time to complete the form. If you use the paper form that was sent at the beginning of school, please put it in an envelope and it will be sent confidentially to our nutrition office. If you need another form, give the office a call at 207-445-1550 and we can send another copy home as well.
Thank you for your support of our schools!

Updates from Nurse Amanda
Please review the health manual accessible via our school’s website under the For Parents tab for the full policy on when to stay home and when it is appropriate to return to school. A few key points are fevers, diarrhea and vomiting. Your child must be free of both without medication for 24 hours before returning to school.
We are also seeing students that are in need of a change of clothes for various reasons, so it would be helpful if they keep a seasonally appropriate change of clothes including socks in their backpacks daily.
