Food and Nutrition Studies have shown that children who are not hungry perform better in school. By providing school meals to all children at no charge, we are hoping to create a better learning environment for our scholars. Contents Tower Grove South Menus Tower Grove East Menus Fox Park Menus Gravois Park Menus The school breakfast and lunch that we serve follow U.S. Department of Agriculture guidelines for healthy school meals. The Free Breakfast and Lunch Program cannot succeed without your support. Please encourage your children to participate in the school meal programs. Momentum continues to operate the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) Program under the United States Department of Agriculture Department (USDA) and Missouri Department of Elementary, and Secondary Education (DESE). The intent of the CEP Program is to improve access to free school meals in eligible high-poverty Learning Education Agency (LEA) and schools and to eliminate the collection of family applications. Through the CEP Program, Momentum provides all students the opportunity to receive a free breakfast and lunch meal and a fresh fruit or vegetable snack.
