FOOD & NUTRITION HEADLINES

  • Meal Charges this Fall

At the end of the 2021-22 school year, all USDA pandemic feeding waivers allowing for universally free breakfast and lunch meals expired.  For the 2022-23 school year, we will be returning to paid meal status for the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program.  Meals will be charged based on a student's free, reduced or paid meal eligibility.  Please see our School Meal Pricing and Information page for details.  

Additional Benefits for Low Income Families Available

Families that previously qualified for free or reduced-priced meal benefits will need to reapply to continue receiving district supported fee reductions and meal benefits throughout 2022-23. Some examples of the benefits and reduced fees available to families who requalify for free and reduced meals include ASB cards, laptop protection and athletic fees.


Those who believe they may qualifyshould also apply for meal benefits to receive available fee reductions.

Parental Consent Needed for Additional Fee Waivers:  Families of children in grades 9-12 who qualify for free and reduced-priced meals, are required to submit a Consent to Share survey to receive additional fee waivers.  New this school year, parental consent is needed to receive additional fee reductions on items such as ASB cards, athletic participation fees, device coverage, and more.
