School lunch program.

Howard University Public Charter Middle School of Mathematics and Science participates in the federal School Breakfast Program (SBP) and National School Lunch Program (NSLP). Breakfast is free for all students in the District of Columbia, and through the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP), lunch is free to all HU-MS² scholars.

Monthly breakfast, lunch and snack menus — including a full vegetarian calendar for breakfast and lunch — are posted here and updated each month, along with the nutrient analysis for each one. All menus are served with appropriate condiments and 1% or fat-free milk; menus are subject to change, and the daily fruit offered may vary with availability.

Nutrition

Our meals are designed to fuel growing scholars through a full day of learning, with vegetarian and vegan options available. Menus follow federal nutrition standards and the District’s Healthy Schools Act.

Our caterer publishes a detailed nutrient analysis for every serving day — calories, protein, fat, sodium, fiber, vitamins and more, with the daily weighted average shown against the federal guideline. If your scholar has an allergy or a medical dietary need, please talk with the school office as well; these reports are not a substitute for medical advice.
