Student Nutrition Services
- Student Nutrition Services (SNS) is committed to providing students the equitable support they need to succeed in the classroom and beyond, by keeping them nourished along the way.
- During the 2021-2022 school year, Federal waivers have made it possible for us to provide no cost school meals for all students enrolled in SFUSD. Starting in the 2022-2023 school year, thanks to the new California Universal Meals Program we will continue to serve free meals to all students
- Save time and money by having your children take advantage of free school meals! Their participation keeps Federal funds here in San Francisco and supports the meal program to improve and expand.
- See your school’s bell schedule for meal service times.

Free Meals for Youth at School Locations During Summer 2022
- This Summer, Student Nutrition Services is welcoming youth back into our cafeterias for school meals during the summer months. Spread the word! We will be returning to how summer meals used to be served before the COVID-19 pandemic.
- All meals are free for youth 18 & under and also available for any student enrolled in SFUSD, regardless of age.
- Each meal will be served individually, and must be eaten on location at the school. Meals will include a full entree, a side of fresh fruit, vegetables, and optional milk.
- At select schools, meals will be served to youth regardless of enrollment in a summer program. Youth do not need to be an SFUSD student. Find a list of locations serving summer meals to all youth below.
