Important School Nutrition News:

Please note that breakfast and lunch will continue to be free for ALL students through the end of the school year in school and at grab & go site(s).

Starting Wednesday April 7th, Walpole Public Schools will provide the following meal plans:

- Fully remote learners – continue to pick up 7 days of meals on Wednesdays at Walpole High School. The new pick up hours are 1:00 to 3:00 pm. Walpole High School is an “open” site so anyone aged 0-21 may pick up meals here.

 -In-school learners (5 days a week) – students will receive their free breakfast and lunch during the school day. In addition, in-school learners may pick up meals for Saturdays and Sundays. The pickup for weekend meals and school vacation meals will also be on Wednesdays 1:00 to 3:00 pm at Walpole High School. Please let the food service staff know that you are getting meals for an in-school learner and they will provide specially packed weekend meals.

It is our privilege to provide nutritious and appetizing meals for your children and we are excited to see the students back in school buildings! Please remember that, when your children eat school meals, it helps the school system by providing federal funds to the district. The more meals we serve, the more funding we receive, allowing us to focus on meal quality, variety and innovative practices, including new recipes.

We encourage families to apply for SNAP benefits. SNAP provides monthly cash benefits (on an EBT card) to purchase groceries for eligible families.

If you are unsure whether your family is eligible, the FoodSource Hotline can assist you by answering eligibility questions in a variety of languages.

In addition, Walpole Food Pantry continues to help families whose children require additional food. Their goal is to support families in the most flexible manner possible by distributing these additional food packages during our meal’s distribution.
