Breakfast cost $1.50; lunch cost $2.50. Therefore, families need to complete the Free and Reduced Meal Application in order to qualify for Free or Reduced-Prices meal benefits as soon as possible. Confirmed eligibility for free & reduced-price meals ensures access to many benefits beyond school meals such as free SAT/ACTs, free college application, and additional technology for schools.We encourage every family to complete the Free and Reduced Meal Application as your eligibility does not automatically transfer each year.
