Free and Reduced Meals

Do you need to complete a Free/Reduced Lunch Application for this school year? 

To fill out a new application, visit www.myschoolapps.com. If your child had an approved free/reduced meal status last year, it will expire on Sept. 23. A new application must be submitted for the 2025-26 school year to continue receiving meal benefits. If a new application is not submitted, then, beginning Sept. 24, they will need to pay for lunch. For assistance with free or reduced meals, contact Susie Zufall - zufalls@pcsb.org or 727-547-7151


Students in Pinellas County Schools are able to apply for free and reduced lunch meal benefits online. Online applications for free meal benefits are available at www.myschoolapps.com Meal applications provide funding for technology, discounted testing and college application fees, free clothing for students and more. To get started, apply beginning August 4, 2025, at myschoolapps.com.

For assistance with free or reduced meals - zufalls@pcsb.org or 727-547-7151. Your online application is much more than just a meal application.
