Federal waivers granting access to free school lunch for students enrolled at schools participating in the National School Lunch Program since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic ended on July 29, 2022.
Families will be able to apply for free or reduced-price school lunch when online registration opens on July 26, 2023. Families may be eligible if they meet the federal income eligibility guidelines or participate in one of the following programs:
- Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP).
- Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations (FDPIR).
- Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF)
Students who do not meet these guidelines will once again be required to pay for school meals.
