Distance Learning Food Services (Seamless Summer Option) 

The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) recently announced that they are permitting school districts who currently operate under the National School Lunch Program (NSLP) to transition to the Seamless Summer Option (SSO) feeding program until December 31, 2020, which would allow schools to serve meals to all children in the community aged 18 and under free of charge.  

Starting Tuesday, September 15, 2020, the Pembroke Pines Charter Schools (PPCS) will transition to the SSO feeding program and all meals served to children aged 18 and under will be for FREE of charge. Please note that your child does not need to attend the PPCS to receive free meals.

To register to participate in the SSO meal service, please complete the registration form by clicking on the link below:

Breakfast and Lunch Menus

Due to the increased costs of printing and going "green" Chartwells has decided to no longer print monthly breakfast and lunch menus for every student. The menus can be found on the Pembroke Pines Charter Schools website. There will be some menus delivered to the school each month for those who may not have internet access.

Making sure students enjoy what they eat can do wonders for growing minds. It has always been the Chartwells promise and commitment to provide customized solutions to support academic achievement at the highest levels. We practice a single-minded commitment to building strong bodies, sharp minds, and establishing the foundation for a long, healthy life. We call this Eat. Learn. Live.
