Free Meal Benefit Has Ended
For the past two years, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) provided waivers to schools across the nation to offer all students, regardless of income status, free breakfast and free lunch. This program will end June 30, 2022. This means that starting next school year (August 2022) families will need to complete a Free/Reduced Meal Application in order to receive free meals at school. Students who do not qualify for Free/Reduced Meals will need to purchase meals at school next school year.
