Curbside Pick-Up Schedule Beginning November 3, all curbside Grab and Go meal sites will operate on Tuesdays and Thursdays 4-6pm only. Patrons will pick up breakfast and lunch for Wednesday and Thursday on Tuesdays and meals for Friday, Monday, and Tuesday on Thursdays. Meals are ready to heat and eat at home (heating instructions are below under "Additional KVA Information"). Pick Up Procedure:
Free Meals Now Through June 2021! Through an extended waiver from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and Texas Department of Agriculture (TDA), Katy ISD is providing free meals to all students beginning, Monday, September 21. On-campus and virtual students can receive breakfast and lunch at no cost through June 2021, or pending available funds through USDA and TDA. All students are eligible for one breakfast and one lunch per day per federal guidance. For example, if the student eats breakfast and lunch at school, the student is not eligible to pick up meals at the Grab ‘N Go sites. On-Campus Students Students attending on-campus instruction are eligible to receive breakfast and lunch at no cost beginning Sept. 21. Parents may add funds to their student’s meal account for a la carte purchases and in preparation for when the USDA waiver ends in their student’s Pay N’ Go Account. Once this waiver expires, the District will switch back to the School Lunch and Breakfast Program. Free and reduced meal applications must still be submitted for the 2020-2021 school year to determine benefits after the waiver ends. Visit schoolcafe.com/KatyISD to apply online. Katy Virtual Academy Students Free curbside meals, breakfast and lunch, are available to students participating in virtual learning, as well as children 18 and under, who are not enrolled in Katy ISD. Participants are able to pick up breakfast and lunch meals, curbside from 4:00 – 6:00 p.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Meals are packaged to be heated and eaten at home. Meals are to be picked up prior to the intended use. Breakfast and lunch kits picked up on Tuesday evening, for example, would be consumed Wednesday morning/ afternoon and Thursday morning/afternoon. Pick up is available at these sites:
Please remember, the Texas Department of Agriculture policy now requires parents picking up meals without a child present to present documentation for each child. (Accepted documentation is official letter/email/electronic school application, student report card, student ID card, attendance records with student’s names, or a birth certificate. Only one form is required.) You can find your Student’s ID number in the Home Access Center, by selecting the ‘Registration’ icon. Under Demographics, you will see your student’s ID displayed.

What Makes a Meal? The federal Healthy, Hunger Free Kids Act of 2010 requires students paying the set meal price to take menu components that meet the meal pattern. The meal pattern consists of FIVE components: meat/meat alternate, grain, fruit, vegetable and milk. If the minimum number of components for each meal are not chosen by the student, a la carte charges will be charged. Breakfast: ● Must choose at least three of the four offered items to make a meal. Lunch: ● Must choose at least three of the five offered components to make a meal. A la Carte: ● Extra entrees, extra sides, chips, ice cream, cookies, etc. are all charged a la carte prices and are not included in the meal Regarding Student Meal Account Balances If your student(s) will be returning in August to Katy ISD, their current cafeteria balance will roll forward to next school year.
