FMS to Provide Free Student Meals After the Bell

Dear FMS Families and Staff,

During the current federal government shutdown, we understand that some families may be facing additional challenges. To support our students and ensure that every child has access to nutritious food, Farmington Municipal Schools will offer free meals to all students who need them.

Meal service will begin on Wednesday, November 5, 2025.

Meals will be available at the following times:

  • Preschools: Beginning at 1:30 p.m. in classrooms

  • Elementary Schools: Beginning at 2:15 p.m. in classrooms

Each meal will be cold and ready for easy pickup. Meals will include a protein, a grain, a fruit, a vegetable, and milk.
