Nutrition Services

Erin Kvach
Supervisor of Nutrition Services

The Nutrition Services Department is made up of a team of 7 food service professionals who are committed to providing high quality meals to students at an affordable price to families.  

Free and Reduced Price Meal Application

Families who are eligible for free or reduced meals based on the 2022-2023 income guidelines must compete a Meal Benefits application online through their Infinite Campus Parent Portal account. Although meals are at no cost, you may be eligible for other benefits by qualifying for free or reduced price meals. These other benefits include waiver of school fees, potential P-EBT funds and so there is no interruption of meal benefits after the current free meals for all program ends. We encourage you to submit an application if you feel your family qualifies for these benefits.

After logging in to your Infinite Campus parent portal, click on the "More" link then  "Meal Benefits" link on the left side of the screen. You will be asked to create a 5 character PIN. This PIN must be no more than 5 characters and must contain at least two of the following: number, letter, special character.

A new application must be submitted yearly and you must provide meals for your child until your application has been approved.

If you received a letter from our office stating you have pre-qualified for free meals, you do NOT need to submit an online free or reduced price meal application.

Menus and Meal Prices: Click here to access the lunch menu. 

Breakfast & Lunch Prices: Menus are planned to ensure that the USDA requirements are met or exceeded. A lunch meal consists of five components: protein, fruit, vegetable, grain, and milk. A breakfast meal consists of a protein or grain, fruit, and milk. Please see the links on the District’s website for the breakfast and lunch menus. A student may refuse certain items, but must take a fruit or vegetable. The full price is still charged even if a student declines certain parts of the meal. 

Student Lunch Prices:
