Apply for Free and Reduced Price School Meals

At WCPSS elementary schools, full-paid breakfast is $1.75 and lunch is $3.50.  This is an increase of 25 cents this year.

 

To receive free or reduced-price meals for the 2024-2025 school year, families must submit a meal benefits application online at MySchoolApps.com. For families who completed the 2023-24 meal benefits application, the benefit continues only for their child's first 30 school days of the 2024-25 school year. 

 

 

Carpool 

Families that want to drive their children to school can easily do so in the mornings but will need a carpool number in the afternoons to pick them up. The same carpool numbers that students obtained last year will be their carpool numbers this year. Click this link to secure a carpool number if you are new to our school.

 

Remember to practice with your child getting in and out of their car seat so that the flow of carpool is not halted with you getting out of the car daily to buckle your child in or unbuckling them. Students should only get out of the passenger side of the car.
