2022-23 Breakfast Changes- IMPORTANT!
Children who are coming in for breakfast will enter Wegienka through the main doors at 8:30 a.m. and head to the cafeteria for breakfast.
To complete an online application instead of a paper application for Free and/or Reduced Lunches (click here) and click on "Online Application for School Meals."
For families wishing to add money to their child's lunch account, (click here) for instructions and more information about adding money through Parent Portal.
Very Important- Universal Free Lunches Ending - ACTION REQUIRED!
During COVID, the federal government enacted a program to provide free lunches to all students. That program has now ended. Families will have to return to what they did before COVID. You MUST complete an application in order for your student to qualify for free or reduced lunches.
Woodhaven-Brownstown School District offers healthy meals every school day. Breakfast costs $1.25 for all students; lunch costs $2.70 for Elementary School students and $3.10 for Middle and High School students. Your children may qualify for free meals or reduced-price meals. Reduced-price is $.30 for breakfast and $.40 for lunch.
We encourage you to complete an online application instead of a paper application if you are able. Please visit https://sisweb.resa.net/FSApp/Main/Login or (click here) and click on "Online Application for School Meals." Please contact Ken Barnes at 734-789-2353 or barnesk@wbsdweb.com if you have any questions about the online application.
