Please call the office if you are changing the way your child is going home from school. This helps us communicate properly with teachers and allows for us to ensure all students are where they need to be when we dismiss for the day. We need to make sure we have everyone where they need to be so we can dismiss our busses on time. Thank you for your cooperation and help with this matter.

Important News About School Meals: Families interested in Free/Reduced meals must apply ASAP
USDA FREE MEAL PROGRAM HAS ENDED
Please read important information about free & reduced-price meals. Interested families should apply as soon as possible.
Families who qualified for free or reduced-price lunches in the past must reapply each year.
Applications for Free & Reduced-Price Meals
The federal USDA program which provided free meals to all US children during the height of COVID has now ended, and the regular meal fee schedules are back in place.
- Only families who have filed current (2022-23) free and reduced-price meal applications, or who are direct-certified (and have been notified as such) are eligible for free or reduced-price meals beginning with the first day of school, with the exception noted below.
- Students who filed applications and qualified for the 2021-22 school year will retain their prior year free or reduced-price status as a carry-over for 30 school days (through September 30). After that, ALL students’ eligibility status will be determined by the current year (2022-23) application.
- Without direct certification or an approved application, families will be responsible for providing their child(ren) with a lunch, or lunch money.
