A free/reduced lunch application must be completed each school year in order for a student to continue receiving free/reduced benefits. Each year’s application is valid only through the beginning of the next school year. If a new application is not completed the student’s status will be changed to full price status during the month of October.

Outstanding Balances
The Board of Education recognizes a student may forget to bring breakfast and/or a lunch meal or not have money to purchase a meal at school on a school day. In this circumstance, the food service program will provide the student with a meal, not snacks. Our district follows USDA and state regulations and will not deny a student a meal. However, the student's account will be charged accordingly and parents/guardians are responsible for the amount owed. Balances are rolled over year to year.
