We have received notice from the South Dakota Department of Education that there will be no free lunches or breakfasts next school year.
As a result, we want to encourage families to start planning for the extra cost of feeding your children at school next year. We also want to encourage ALL families to submit their application for free or reduced-price meals in August. This will ensure that families who qualify will be able to receive free or reduced priced meals at the start of the 2022/23 school year. APPLICATIONS FOR THE 2022/23 SCHOOL YEAR CANNOT BE COMPLETED PRIOR TO JULY 1, 2022.
If you have questions regarding this information or the application process, please contact Mrs. Mirista Bushman. This is first of several notices and reminders that we will be sending out to our families regarding this change.
