Free and Reduced Meals

If your family qualifies for Free and Reduced Meals, please remember to fill out a new application.  Even if you filled it out in a previous year, you must fill it out again if your family still qualifies.  A student's application from last year is only valid until October 11th.  As of October 12th, lunches will begin to be charged to the student's account at the regular amount.

Free and reduced price meals are available to students whose households qualify under federal standards.  Please visit the FCPS Food and Nutrition Services website, https://www.fcps.edu/node/31049, to access the form online.  If you wish to complete a traditional paper application, you can obtain a copy from our school office.  After you apply, you will be notified in writing of your child's status.

If you qualify for Free and Reduced price meals this year, you can also choose to fill out the Consent to Share Information for Benefits of Other Programs.  You may be eligible to participate in other FCPS fee-based programs without paying a fee or by paying a reduced fee.
