District lunch menus
Wake County Public School System School Lunch Menu
Official sources reviewed:
Wake County Public School System (WCPSS) routes families to MealViewer for menus, MySchoolBucks for cafeteria payments, and MySchoolApps for meal applications. For account-balance questions, the district directs families to their student's school dining room manager. Use the menu page for dietary paperwork and the benefits page for application help.
How to find your school's menu
Set up cafeteria payments
Have the student ID ready when creating a MySchoolBucks account. WCPSS lists deposits, balance checks, purchase history, spending limits and low-balance alerts among its features. Families can also send cash or a check to the school cafeteria instead of making an online payment.

Submit a special-diet request
WCPSS asks families using school meal services to submit its Medical Statement for Students with Special Dietary Needs, signed by a medical authority. Send it to cns-special-diets@wcpss.net or give it to the cafeteria manager. The district says to send meals from home until the requested diet is approved.

Apply online or request a paper form
The Free/Reduced Meals page links MySchoolApps and says its application is mobile-friendly and offered in multiple languages. Paper forms are available at schools and Central Office; families can request one by mail at 919-588-3535 or 919-856-2920. Application questions can also go to cnsmealbenefits@wcpss.net. This application route is separate from the MySchoolBucks payment account.
