The free and reduced application is available now. You can log into the parent portal and quickly fill out the application for the 2024-2025 school year or you can print the application below and return it to the child nutrition department. 

A new application is required each school year. If you previously submitted an application, it will not roll over to the new school year; we must receive the latest 2024-25 application and process it to verify your family’s eligibility.

FREE & REDUCED MEAL PROGRAM APPLICATION

The free and reduced price school meal program is available to all students, Pre-K through 12th grade. The eligibility scale to receive free/reduced meals, as determined by the USDA, is based on household size and income. Many families qualify and are encouraged to submit an application. Applications can be completed online through the Parent Portal (see ‘Lunchroom Application’)

Paper application copies can also be obtained from the administration office, located at 400 E. Main St.  A new application must be submitted every school year.

Application submissions are preferred at the beginning of the school year to ensure the school maintains state funding assistance and can appropriately plan and budget for students in the future. However, free and reduced applications are accepted anytime throughout the year.

This program supports more than just meals for students. Every completed application contributes to helping our school qualify for additional funding from the federal government to help support teaching and learning. Those funds directly impact every district program and department, including instruction, athletics, technology, etc. Students who qualify are also eligible for many other benefits, such as:

  • SNAP
  • ACT fee waiver
  • College Application fee waiver

 

SNAP Program

SNAP enables low-income families to buy nutritious food with Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) cards. SNAP recipients spend their benefits to buy eligible food in authorized retail food stores/Farmers' Markets.
