Lunch Applications
Good evening Parents:
As we look forward to our summer break, we want to call your attention to some important information for next school year. As you are aware, schools have been able to offer breakfast and lunch at no charge to students during the last two school years. This was made possible thanks to the generous support of the U.S. Department of Agriculture reimbursing schools for meals served to students, regardless of their income.
At this time, there is no plan for that support to continue into the next school year. For the school year 2022-2023, Savannah Chatham County Public Schools is requesting all families to complete and submit a Free and Reduced Meal Application starting July 1, 2022, if you believe your student(s) may be eligible. The application can also be completed online using the link myschoolapps.com that will be live on July 1, 2022. We will provide a reminder at that time and throughout the month of July, leading up to the start of the new school year.
For information about Savannah Chatham County Public School Nutrition Program, please contact Maria Fields, School Nutrition Records Management Specialist at (912) 395-1066).
The entire staff at Savannah Chatham County Public Schools is looking forward to supporting your child in the coming school year. We thank you for your consideration and support of Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools.
