The Mount Pleasant Independent School District announced today it will operate the Community Eligibility Program (CEP) under the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program at all of the district campuses for the 2023-2024 school year. All Schools qualifying to operate CEP serve breakfast and lunch to all children at no charge and eliminate the collection of meal applications for free, reduced-price, and paid student meals. This approach reduces burdens for both families and school administrators and helps ensure that students receive nutritious meals.
All students who attend at the Mount Pleasant High School, the Mount Pleasant Jr. High School, the P. E. Wallace Middle School, the Frances Corprew Elementary School, the Annie Sims Elementary School, the E. C. Brice Elementary School, the Vivian Fowler Elementary School and the Mount Pleasant Child Development Center will all receive breakfast and lunch meals during the school day at no charge to the student’s families.
