Local Education Agencies - As introduced, requires each local school board to establish a school lunch program and a school breakfast program that provide a free breakfast and lunch to each student enrolled in a school under the board's jurisdiction; requires the state to reimburse each LEA for the cost of providing a free breakfast and lunch to each student enrolled in the LEA after all available federal funds have been applied. - Amends TCA Title 49.

HB 1458 requires all Tennessee public school districts to provide free breakfast and lunch to every enrolled student, starting with the 2026-2027 school year. It directly affects all students in Tennessee public schools and local school districts, mandating that school boards establish these meal programs. The bill specifies that the state will reimburse districts for meal costs after all available federal nutrition program funds (like the National School Lunch Program) have been applied. This policy change ensures universal access to free school meals without requiring additional local funding beyond federal reimbursements.
