FREE AND REDUCED MEAL APPLICATION

IT'S MORE THAN A MEAL APPLICATION!

Meal applications may qualify students to receive fee waivers on ASB cards and programs, sport events, extracurricular activities, and other events and programs. Unless you are directly certified through Basic Food, TANF, FDPIR, and other assistance programs for the 2023-24 school year, you must fill out a new application each school year to be eligible for meals and fee waivers. You must also consent to share your eligibility status with those programs.
