Overton County Schools has been approved for Community Eligibility Provision - CEP for 2024-2025 school year.
The Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) is a non-pricing meal service option for schools and school districts in low-income areas. It allows high-poverty schools and districts to serve breakfast and lunch at no cost to all enrolled students without collecting household applications. Instead of individual applications, schools that adopt CEP are reimbursed based on the percentage of students categorically eligible for free meals through other means-tested programs like the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF). This provision helps ensure that students receive nutritious meals regardless of their family's financial situation. 🍎🥪

The Overton County School Nutrition Program (SNP) offers breakfast, lunch, after-school snacks, and summer feeding programs to all enrolled students. The School Nutrition Department is striving to offer tasty meals that meet the new tough federal nutrition standards, ensuring that meals are healthy, well-balanced and provide students with the nutrition needed to be successful at school. School meals offer students milk, fruits, vegetables, proteins and grains while meeting additional standards requiring:
Age-appropriate calorie limits
Larger servings of vegetables and fruits (student must take at least one serving of produce)
A wider variety of vegetables including dark greens, orange/red vegetables and legumes.
Fat-free or 1% milk (flavored milk must be fat-free)
More whole grain
Less sodium
School meals are a great value when compared to local restaurant pricing, better nutritionally than "fast food" take out, and convenient for busy family schedules.
Overton County Schools are currently in the process of converting to a new Point of Sale system, Titan. Titan is part of the LINQ Connect which provides a convenient payment system that can be accessed both by desktop/laptop computer or cell phone.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is my Child's Student ID number?
The Student ID Number (or Skyward number) is a unique number assigned by Overton County Schools when your child registers. It is a seven-digit number that is unique to your child within Overton County Schools, and it will never change. This unique seven-digit number can be obtained by calling the office of the school where your child attends.
2. Can I pay online?
Coming Soon! LINQ Connect!
With the new LINQ Connect, parents can put money into their child's account, move money from one child's account to another, monitor spending, see "what" their child is purchasing, etc.
3. If I add money to my Child's account online, can I still send in a check or cash to the lunchroom manager?
Yes! Money can be added by whichever method is most convenient for your family.
My child has a food allergy. Who do I contact? You can call your child's school, or send a note to the front office, teacher, or cafeteria manager informing them of your child's food allergy. A list of acceptable foods your child eats at home is also very helpful. You must also fill out the required Meal Modification Form.
Will I need a doctor's statement? Yes. This helps staff to better accommodate your child's needs. The more information about your child's condition and their needs, the better.
