    2022-23 School Meal Info

    What are the prices for breakfast and lunches available at school?

    Prices are:

    • Breakfast All Students - $2 
    • Lunch Elementary Students - $2.75
    • Lunch Secondary Students - $3.00

    I thought meals were free for all students?

    The federal government ended the free meals for everyone program in the summer of 2022. 

    Can my children still receive free or reduced-price meals?

    If your family qualifies, yes. Parents must complete and submit an application for this program.

    How do we apply for free or reduced-priced meals?

    Use this link to apply for free or reduced-priced meals.

    Here's a link to an informational video. 

    When will our family find out if we qualify?

    No later than 10 days after the application is submitted.

    Our family qualifies for Direct Certification through the Idaho Department of Health & Welfare. Do we need to apply?

    You should have received an email with information. If you did not receive the email, please contact us.

    How do we pay for meals?
