Immunizations

Free and Reduced-Price Meal Applications

 For the past two years, the federal government has provided no-cost meals to all public school students without the need to complete the annual Free and Reduced-Price Meal application. However, the extension of the no-cost meals benefit to all students is expected to expire at the end of this school year.

Families must submit an application and be approved to be eligible for free and reduced price meals for SY 22-23.

We encourage you to submit the Free and Reduced-Price Meal application prior to the first day of the 22-23 school year. The online application will be available later this summer.

Watch your email and our website for more information.

Learn more about the Free and Reduced-Price Meal program online.
