Portsmouth Public Schools is committed to serving the community. In addition to the 8 school
sites, effective April 13, 2020 we have now added the
Magic Food Bus to deliver meals to bus stops where children can walk safely to receive the daily
nutrition they need. Please see our
Magic School Bus Delivery Schedule webpage for the routes and times.
Children 18 and under can pick up both breakfast and lunch at Churchland High, I.C.
Norcom High, Wilson High, Cradock Middle, Waters Middle, Churchland Elementary, Churchland
Primary and Intermediate, and John Tyler Elementary.
Please note children still must be present to pick up meals. Pick up times will remain from 10 a.m. to
noon at the high schools; all other schools will have pick up times of 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
In addition, PPS has continued to work with the city’s Parks and Recreation Department. The division’s
Food Services team will be preparing meals to go for more than 60 city sites that will serve breakfasts and lunches for residents in need. For a full list of all these sites,
