Free Breakfast and Lunch for 23-24 School Year
The 2023-2024 school year will be the last year for free meals FOR ALL STUDENTS at Starr Elementary.
Starting in 2024-2025, parents will have to apply for free/reduced meals, but ALL students will continue to receive free meals this year so there is no need to apply.
Milk will be 50 cents, again, for any student that does not take the school lunch and brings lunch from home but would like a milk.
Beginning/End of the Day Times
7:55am - Students Dismissed to Classrooms
8:00am - CLASSES BEGIN
~PLEASE ENSURE YOUR STUDENT IS ON TIME~

Parents and Morning Drop-off/Breakfast Change
In the past, we have had parents that like to walk their students into school in the mornings and some that even like to stay for breakfast. We understand that you may want to accompany them for the first few days, but starting Monday, August 28th, we will begin requesting that parents leave the students at the doors or the drop-off. We will take the great care of your students the moment they walk in the door AND we promise that it helps them to build independence, too!
Thanks for understanding!
