CALIFORNIA LEGISLATURE—
2019–2020 REGULAR SESSION
Assembly Bill
No. 2527
Introduced by Assembly Member Nazarian |
February 19, 2020 |
An act relating to school meals.
LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
AB 2527, as introduced, Nazarian.
Free school breakfast: nonschoolaged children.
Existing law requires a school district, county superintendent of schools, or charter school maintaining kindergarten or any of grades 1 to 12, inclusive, to provide a needy pupil with one nutritionally adequate free or reduced-price meal during each schoolday, and authorizes a school district or county office of education to use funds available from any federal program, including the federal School Breakfast Program, to comply with that requirement. Existing law generally requires a school district or a county superintendent of schools to provide breakfast and lunch free of charge to all pupils at a very high poverty school, as defined.
This bill would state the intent of the Legislature to enact legislation that would establish a pathway for eligible nonschoolaged children to obtain free school breakfast in order to ensure that nonschoolaged
children are not left without a meal.
