Sign Up For Meal Assistance If You Qualify
Due to funding from a federal program, Park Hill School District was able to supply free meals to all children ages 18 and under for the past two years. However, that program ended on the last day of 2021-2022 school year.
Families who think they might qualify for free and reduced meals should apply for these benefits. If you are unsure of your status you can contact Elisha Smith at smithe@parkhill.k12.mo.us or our Nutrition Services department .
