Welcome to Drew Dining for 2025-2026!

Our School Nutrition staff is excited to deliver enhanced menu items for the 2025-26 school year. Multiple hot and cold meal options are available daily for Breakfast and Lunch at a fee. Because Drew participates in the USDA National School Breakfast & Lunch Programs, any family can apply for free or reduced-price school meals.  There is no fee to apply, and the process is confidential. We encourage all families to apply. Families who do not qualify for Free or Reduced-Priced meal benefits will be charged the full fee for any meals their students are served at school.

Here is what you need to know:

Step 1

Click here to create or update your school meal account at MyMealTime.com.

You will need to know each child's Student ID number. You can find this number in Infinite Campus. If you have a “New to Drew” student who recently completed enrollment, your student may not have been assigned a Student ID number, or the student record may not have yet transferred to Drew. If this occurs, you cannot create a meal account until the records are complete and corrected. Please send your child with lunch from home until your account is created.

Step 2

Complete the Federal Eligibility Application for Free & Reduced Meals online at MyMealTime.com/Apps.

Everyone is required to complete the application annually to receive this benefit. We highly encourage families to apply before Friday, August 1, 2025. Responses typically take 48 hours.

Free and Reduced Meal benefits are not retroactive. Applicants will be held responsible for any meal fees incurred before application approval.

Step 3

Deposit funds to activate your student’s meal account. Note that school meals are not free. You must either pay the full price or qualify for the free or reduced-price meal benefit by completing the FEA process mentioned in Step 2. To review our Meal Charge Policy, click here.

Frequently Asked Questions:

How Much Do Meals Cost?
