Meal Application Information

Free & Reduced Meal Application

The free and reduced meal application for 2024-2025 is now available in the Parent Portal. If you do not yet have the Parent Portal, please contact your school's front office for assistance. You will need the Parent Portal this school year for information about your student including attendance, registration, grades and schedules.

Applying for the free/reduced meal program through the Parent Portal is the fastest way to find out if you qualify. Applications made through the Portal can be processed the next business day. You may also fill out a paper application. Those can take 10 or more days to process. Find links for the paper applications at the bottom of the page.

Finding the Application on the Parent Portal

The application can be found in the Parent Portal by clicking "More" in the left navigation and then "Meal Benefits."

Once you submit the application, communication about the status of the application will be in your Inbox and in your Message Center in the Parent Portal.

Even if you don't qualify for the meal-price reduction, the application may provide other benefits.
