Summary

Existing law requires a school district or county superintendent of schools maintaining kindergarten or any of grades 1 to 12, inclusive, to provide 2 school meals free of charge during each schoolday to any pupil who requests a meal without consideration of the pupil's eligibility for a federally funded free or reduced-price meal, with a maximum of one free meal for each meal service. The meals provided under this provision are required to be nutritiously adequate meals that qualify for federal reimbursement. Existing law authorizes a school, from the midnight before to 30 minutes after the end of the official schoolday, to sell food other than meals reimbursed by specified federal nutrition programs, only if the food meets dietary guidelines, as specified, depending on grade level. This bill would provide that nothing in those provisions are required to be construed to prohibit a school from selling to a pupil, after the pupil has been provided a school meal pursuant the provisions described above, the entrée from an additional nutritiously adequate meal that qualifies for federal reimbursement, from the same meal service.
