Chef-Inspired, Scratch-Made Meal Program

We have changed to a chef-cooked food program and we hope you share a meal with us!

If you might qualify for Free/Reduced price meals, please apply or reapply, as it may qualify you for other supports! Because we have shifted to this new program, the school breakfast and lunch menu may differ from time to time due to fluctuations in product availability.  Please check with your school’s cafeteria to see if there are any changes in the menu for that day.  Supply chain interruptions have been common and are impacting food service and restaurants nationwide.  We apologize for any inconvenience these changes may have.

Free/Reduced Application for 2023-2024

Families should submit a new Free & Reduced Meal Application each school year by the 30th day of school. The Free & Reduced application provides free breakfast and lunch, as well as discounts for fees, scholarship opportunities and more.

Carry over ends 10-17-2023: For 2023-2024 year, October 17th is the 30th day of the school year. Any students receiving free or reduced meals on a carry over status from 2022-2023, who have not turned in a new form, will be charged full price starting on October 18, 2023. Families with questions about their application or who need assistance should contact Julie Ferguson at the District Office, 360-954-3069.

Please make sure to also read the letter to households, which is at the start of the linked file, and contains a consent to share eligibility form, and then fill out the 2023-24 Free/Reduced Meal Application Form, letter to households, and the consent to share for other programs.

Meal Prices for 2023-2024 School Year

Some good news – student meal prices for 2023-2024 have not changed. Increased meal prices help cover the costs associated with complying with nutrition guidelines and also help reduce the amount that the district is subsidizing the food program. Yearly review of meal prices are required by the USDA, and the district must adjust prices when the review indicates the program is not charging enough.
