About MCSD Food Services

The Monticello Central School District provides healthy school meals – both breakfast and lunch – free for all students attending school in the district.

All students enrolled at Emma Chase Elementary, George Cooke Elementary, Kenneth Rutherford Elementary, Robert J. Kaiser Middle and the Monticello High Schools have access to a  healthy breakfast and lunch each day at school at no charge. There is no fee to be paid or application to be submitted.

Students may purchase additional items a la carte.

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. That’s why Monticello Central School District makes sure all of its students have access to breakfast every morning.  Should your elementary school child arrive after the bell, our Food Service workers will make sure your child still has the opportunity to jump-start their learning with a wholesome breakfast.

If you have any further questions, please contact the Food Service Department  at (845) 794-8840 ext. 10970.

A note about menus: please be advised that like many other industries, the food services team is experiencing major vendor and supply challenges. We are striving to work within the meal patterns as much as possible. We appreciate your flexibility in the event of unanticipated menu changes.
