Free and Reduced Lunch Applications

All students are eligible to apply for free or reduced meal benefits. Students who had meal benefits previously must re-apply for the current school year. Meal applications need to be completed only in black ink and need to be submitted to the school office for processing. For a quicker response, parents may also submit their applications on-line at ezmealapp.com. If the application is approved, meal benefits will be valid only for the current school year. However, if the application is not approved, students can re-apply at any time. Questions regarding meal benefits can be addressed at the school office. 

*Please do not submit a paper application if an on-line application is submitted.
