This dashboard visualizes key challenges School Food Authorities faced during school year 2023-2024 based on findings from the 2023-2024 School Food Authority Survey III on Supply Chain Disruption and Student Participation.
The goal of the dashboard is to provide national and state level visualization of meals served, participation, and funding data for the National School Lunch Program, School Breakfast Program, Child and Adult Care Food Program, and Summer Food Service Program. The dashboard can be used by federal, state, and local organizations to assess trends in child nutrition program activity.
This information is provided to assist state agencies, school food authorities, and local schools with the selection of a software program that has been USDA-approved for nutrient analyses required in the school meal programs.
This agreement sets out the requirements for administering the child nutrition programs and the food distribution programs.
This is a model application developed by USDA to demonstrate the potential functionality of a school district's application. NO information will be saved or submitted for processing. If you are a parent, contact your child's school to find out where you can access their application for school meal benefits.
Featured here is USDA’s Web-Based Prototype Application for Free and Reduced Price School Meals, along with accompanying guidance materials and resources.
