Sumner County Schools Serve Free Meals | Nashville News
Description
Sumner County students are enjoying free school meals this year thanks to the federal Community Eligibility Provision, which lets schools offer meals to all students if at least 25% qualify for free or reduced-price meals. Schools in Gallatin, Portland, and Westmoreland are participating, while many in Hendersonville and White House aren’t meeting the threshold. This relief helps families save money and stress, though not every student benefits — some still need other support. Local groups like First Baptist Church are stepping in to fill gaps, especially over weekends, as the district continues to evaluate eligibility on a case-by-case or grouped basis.
