GCPS to provide meals free of charge to students and to children 18 and younger

Last week, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) granted additional waiver extensions that allow school districts to offer meals at no charge through December 31 through the Seamless Summer Option (SSO). This extension, paired with guidance received from the Georgia Department of Education, will allow Gwinnett County Public Schools to offer meals at no charge at school sites to all students. These meals are provided at no cost to the individual through the federal School Nutrition Program.

Students Attending School In-Person - Those attending school in-person will receive meals free-of-charge during their school’s scheduled meal times.

Curbside Pick-up for Digital Learners - Digital learners may pick up meals through the curbside pick-up programs at each school, Monday through Friday, between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. Each day’s pick-up includes both breakfast and lunch. Starling families should drive through the bus lane for pick up. Individuals will not be allowed to enter the school to pick up or eat meals. (Click here for a list of the 132 schools offering curbside pick-up.)

Curbside Pick-up for Others 18 Years of Age or Younger - As part of the Seamless Summer Option, curbside pick-up meals also will be available at no charge to anyone 18 years of age or younger, even to children who are not a GCPS student. Please check with your local school for curbside pick-up times and the location of the pick-up program. Individuals will not be allowed to enter the school to pick up or eat meals.

Girl Scout Registration

There will be a parent information meeting on September 16th and 17th at 7:00 p.m. via zoom. See this attached flyer for more information.

Transportation Info

There is a new form on the MyPaymentsPlus website that we will be using as our Alternate Transportation Form. This form helps us know how students are being dismissed from school.

If your child rides a Gwinnett County School Bus to their home address, you DO NOT need to fill out this form. If your child is a car rider, day care attendee, or rides a bus to an address other than your home address, we DO need you to fill this out.

Please note that there are English and Spanish forms available, and you will only have to fill out one or the other. If you have multiple children at Starling, please fill out the form for EACH child.

Please log in to your MyPaymentsPlus account at https://www.mypaymentsplus.com/welcome, and then follow the attached directions. Thank you!
