Free and Reduced-Price Meals
2023-24 school year applications are now available. Don't forget... families must re-apply every year.

If you qualify for Free or Reduced Meals you may also qualify for:
- School fee waivers: a fee waiver form must be completed.
- Other services such as health insurance: contact your school nurse for more information.
The online application only takes a few minutes and is the fastest, easiest way to get approved. Paper applications are available. Parents wishing to have a paper application mailed to them should contact the Food Services office at 425-408-7657.
