We want to inform families that Medway Public Schools offers an optional Chromebook insurance policy to support students better, improve our repair process, and ensure funds directly benefit our schools. Families can opt in to the insurance program for $29 per year. Policies will cover all accidental damages. This policy will not cover cosmetic damage, wear & tear, power supplies, unexplained loss, or intentional damage. Families who choose not to purchase insurance will be responsible for the full cost of parts for any repairs. They will be invoiced if a repair is needed, and can buy insurance for future claims. Complete the form for optional insurance: https://bit.ly/2Bro5cr.

Children need healthy meals to learn, and we are proud to share that Medway Public Schools continues to offer nutritious breakfast and lunch to all students at no cost. This program is made possible through funding from the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, and it has now been made permanent for all students.

Even though meals are free, we need your help to keep this program strong. By completing the Meal Benefit Application, you can:
Support our ability to sustain free meals by increasing access to Federal funding.
Drive additional funding for critical educational programs in our schools.
Help provide free summer and childcare meals in our community.

Please visit our Medway Public Schools website - Free and Reduced Lunch to access related, essential documents such as:
Notice of Meal Benefit Application
Meal Benefit Application and Instructions
Please complete this form if you believe your family may qualify. Families who apply or are directly certified will receive a free or reduced status confirmation from us.
Sharing Information with Other Programs Form - Completing this form allows us, with your permission, to share your eligibility status with other Medway programs that may reduce or waive fees, including but not limited to transportation, athletics, integrated preschool, test fees, field trip fees, and Community Education programs. Submitting this form will not affect your child’s free or reduced meal status, but it may help lower costs for your family in other areas.
Please note that if you submit an application or are directly certified through the state and are approved for free or reduced meal prices, we will contact you directly to inform you of the determination.

We strongly encourage all families to review and complete these forms. Together, we can ensure every student can access healthy meals and expanded opportunities across our district.

Summer Family Resources The summer months allow families to reconnect differently than they may have the opportunity to during the school year. Sometimes these several weeks provide challenges for families due to the change in schedule and access to essential resources such as food and social and emotional supports. Please find an array of family and student resources available in Medway this summer, connected to family fun, food, staying active, and community support in these flyers: English: https://bit.ly/4kSJAWU, , Spanish: https://bit.ly/45dwrmU, Portuguese: https://bit.ly/4mRFpwB.
