School Lunch Information
Iowa City Community School District will have meals available for students in the hybrid and online learning models during fall 2020. All meals, regardless of model, will be free through December 2020.
Hybrid:
Breakfast and lunch will be available through onsite cafeterias for students while they are on campus. Students and staff will follow district health and safety protocols during onsite meal service.
Meals are free and can include a carton of milk. A “meal” is defined as any three different items, one of which must be a fruit or vegetable.
If a student is only wanting to purchase a single carton of milk, there is a $.50 charge. However:
If a student takes a milk and 2 other items (one being a fruit or veggie), it counts as a meal and the milk and two items would be free. Even if a student brings a lunch from home and only wants a milk, he/she can still participate in this free lunch service by taking two items in addition to the milk.
Secondary students, the first meal is free but additional meals or entrees will be charged at a la carte prices. Remember students must take a fruit or veggie to count as a meal, otherwise entrees will be charged at a la carte prices.
Grab & Go Meals for any students not on campus will be distributed Monday through Friday (with the exception of No School days) from 12:00 pm -1:00 pm at designated locations (City HS, Liberty HS, West HS, NCJH, NWJH, SEJH, Hills ES)
ICCSD Online Program: Breakfast and lunch will be available for students participating in the online program.
Grab & Go Meals for any students not on campus will be distributed Monday through Friday (with the exception of No School days) from 12:00 pm -1:00 pm at designated locations (City HS, Liberty HS, West HS, NCJH, NWJH, SEJH, Hills ES)
