Happy October 1, QCSD! As a friendly reminder every student has access to one free breakfast and one free lunch at no cost, ensuring that all our children receive nutritious meals each day without any financial burden on families. This initiative is designed to support our students' health and academic performance by removing barriers to accessing healthy food. A second meal and snacks can be provided if the student has funds in their account.
