716 - Free or Reduced Cost Meals Eligibility

Students enrolled and attending school in the school District, who are unable to afford the special milk program, the cost or a portion of the cost of the school lunch, breakfast and supplemental foods, will be provided the school nutrition program services at no cost or at a reduced cost.

It shall be the responsibility of the Food Service Program Director to determine if a student qualifies for free or reduced cost school food services.  Students will not be denied the school nutrition program services simply because the paperwork has not been completed.

It shall be the responsibility of the Superintendent to develop administrative regulations for implementing this policy.
