Please fill out an application via Aspire.

Important things to remember:

  1. Families must reapply every school year for free and reduced meal benefits.
  2. Submit only ONE APPLICATION for your entire household. Do not submit a separate application for each child who attends school.
  3. Be careful to include all students and members of your household on the application.  Don’t miss anyone.
  4. You must provide your student(s) birthday and/or student identification number to complete the application. Contact the school secretary if you do not have this information.
  5. Upon completion, the computer program will provide a confirmation number.  Keep a record of that number as proof that your application has been submitted.
  6. Remember that the parent/guardian is responsible for all meal charges accrued while your application is being approved. Don’t wait. Apply early!
  7. Once the application is approved, you will receive a letter by mail within 10 business days that identifies the qualified meal benefit status for each student.
  8. You can fill out a lunch application anytime throughout the school year.
