Pomona Unified says free breakfast and lunch will be available to all TK-12 students
Pomona Unified School District is reminding families that all PUSD TK-12 students can receive free breakfast and lunch during the 2026-27 school year without submitting an application.
The district published the notice July 20, 2026, as families prepare for the first day of school on Wednesday, August 12. The meals will be provided according to district schedules and at participating school locations.
No application is required
Pomona Unified says families do not need to complete an application for students to receive the universal free-meal benefit. The announcement applies to students enrolled in the district’s TK-12 programs.
The district’s notice does not provide specific serving times, menus or a complete list of locations. Families should check current Food and Nutrition Services information for details that may vary by school or service period.
School starts August 12
Pomona Unified’s 2026-27 school-year notice lists August 12, 2026, as the first day of school. The district’s August calendar also supports that date, giving families a confirmed start date as they plan transportation, schedules and meals for the return to school.
The district’s Food and Nutrition Services page provides menus, school-site information and parent resources. Families should use that page for current operational information before the school year begins.
Questions for Food and Nutrition Services
Families with questions can contact Pomona Unified Food and Nutrition Services at (909) 397-4711, extension 21100.
The immediate takeaway for Pomona families is that every PUSD TK-12 student may receive free breakfast and lunch during the district’s announced service periods, no application is required, and the 2026-27 school year begins Wednesday, August 12.
