26-27 FREE AND REDUCED MEALS (FARMS) APPLICATION

The Free and Reduced-price Meals (FARMS) application is now available for the 2026–2027 school year.

Students may qualify for Free or Reduced-price Meals based on household size and income. Students may also qualify if they are receiving Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), Temporary Cash Assistance (TCA) or Medicaid benefits.

Families must renew their FARMS application each school year even if their child qualified the previous year. 

Students who qualify for reduced-price meals will eat for free. Visit the MCPS Website for more information.
