Your children may qualify for free and reduced meals. We encourage you to fill an application out as soon as possible. You can obtain an application from your school secretary or Shelly Mueller (Admin. Office) or download here. Not only will this help stretch your budget, but may assist your school in receiving “at risk” funding. We are allowed 10 operating days to process your applications; we will process them as soon as they are received. UNTIL THE APPLICATION IS APPROVED, YOU MUST PAY THE FULL PRICE FOR MEALS.

PLEASE TAKE NOTE: Children that were approved for free or reduced last year automatically qualify for the free and reduced status for the first thirty operating days of this school year. Approval of your application cannot be retroactive to meals already served. Your child’s free and reduced status is highly confidential. If your income changes at any time and you believe you may qualify for free or reduced meals, you may obtain an application from your school secretary, Administration Office (Shelly Mueller) or Tammy Viers (FSD).
