School Meals Application

All children in households receiving benefits from Food Assistance Program (FAP), Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations (FDPIR) or Family Independence Program (FIP), are eligible for free meals.

FILL OUT A NEW APPLICATION EACH SCHOOL YEAR!

For the 2022-23 school year, meal pricing will return to paid, reduced, or free depending on eligibility.  You MUST fill out and sign the Free and Reduced-Price Meal Application and return to the school as soon as possible.  This information is used to determine eligibility for free or reduced price meals and is also critical in determining the amount of money that our district receives from a variety of State and Federal supplemental programs like Title I A, At-Risk (31a), Title II A, E-Rate, etc.  The lunch prices are $3.25/paid, $0.40/reduced or $0/free for families who qualify.

Applications are available in the Principal’s office or can be printed from the district website and may be completed and turned in at any time during the school year.

More than just school lunches!  Breakfast is also available at both buildings for all students.  If you qualify for free or reduced lunch, your student(s) also qualify for free or reduced price breakfast.

The NICE breakfast program is available to all students every weekday morning.  Times served are Aspen Ridge School 7:45 am – 8:15 am and Westwood High School 7:30 am – 8:00 am.  The breakfast prices are $2.00/paid and $0.30/reduced or $0/free for families who qualify.

Students and families who qualified for free or reduced price meals last school year from their application on file MUST fill out a new application for this school year (2022-2023). The free or reduced benefits from last year will only be carried-over until Wednesday, October 12, 2022. After that, if no new application is on file, meals will begin to be charged at full price.  The school will not send a reminder or a notice of expired eligibility. Applications will be sent home with each student on the first day of school. They can also be picked up at each school office or downloaded and printed from the link below. To avoid an interruption of benefits, don’t forget to re-apply for free or reduced price meals each school year!
