Clayton County Public Schools is slated to implement the Community Eligibility Option (CEO) for Free Meal Reimbursement in School Year 2013 - 2014. Through the program, the school district, will offer meals at no charge to all students. This eliminates the procedure of distributing and processing meal applications. Clayton County Public Schools’ participation in CEO started July 1, 2013 and will continue until through June 30, 2017. Georgia is one of 11 states selected to pilot this innovative program. CEO will be available to the entire country in School Year 2015.
