Great News for you & your students attending elementary school!  All children are eligible to receive a healthy breakfast & lunch at school at no charge to your household each day of the 2012-13 school year.  Your child(ren) will be able to participate in these meal programs without having to pay a fee or submit a meal application.  Parents of elementary school children will not be billed for meals eaten during the 2012-13 school term.  Whether this program can be continued beyond this year will be determined later in the year.  Any lunch bill balance for previous school years will still be collected by the school system.
