Free and Reduced Price Meal Information
Overview
Families who previously qualified for free or reduced-priced meal benefits will be notified to reapply when school starts to continue receiving district supported fee reductions and benefits. Benefits and reduced fees available to families who qualify for free and reduced meals include PEBT, ASB cards and athletic fees.
Those who believe they may qualify, should also apply for meal benefits when school starts to receive available fee reductions.
Parental Consent Needed for Additional Fee Waivers: Families of children who qualify for free and reduced-priced meals and are eligible for reduced fees are required to submit a Consent to Share survey to receive additional fee waivers. Parental consent is needed to receive additional fee reductions on items such as ASB cards, athletic participation fees, and more.
