Changes to the School Nutrition Program for School Year 2024 -2025

Free and Reduced application will be available on line at EZMealapp July 15, 2024. Paper copies will be mailed out after July 22, 2024  to all families who have not previously qualified.  Please remember that your family must reapply each school year.  If a new application is not completed and approved, parents are responsible for the cost of the meals until the application is approved.  All families approved for Reduced status will be able to eat FREE of charge this school year. In addition, breakfast will also be FREE to all students!!!     Families who do not qualify for free meals will be responsible for paying for their child(ren)'s meals at the paid rate.  

If your child has been diagnosed with a food allergy or has a disability that requires menu substitutions you will need a physician to fill out a Medical Statement for Student Requiring Special Meals.  You can obtain one of these from your school nurse or at the Nutrition Service Office located at 1205 Fleming.

Monthly menus will be posted on schools web site ETrition Family Portal.  In addition, Nutrition Service now offers an online service to monitor your student’s cafeteria account and purchases.  Starting July 15, 2024, parents may go to EZSchoolPay and create an account or call the Nutrition Service office at 620-805-7080 for more information!
