Adair County Food Service Program: Every Student Eats Breakfast And Lunch At No Charge All Year

Attention:  Parents & Students

EVERY student eats BREAKFAST & LUNCH AT NO CHARGE ALL YEAR!

Adair County Food Service Program is participating in the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) that allows ALL STUDENTS to receive free breakfast and free lunch for the 2024 – 2025 school year.  Your child’s participation in breakfast and lunch will be essential to continue to offer all school meals free for our children!  All students must take the required food components to make a reimbursable meal or they will have to pay for each item and will not qualify for a free meal.

Your child may continue to PURCHASE extra food items or a la carte items at a set price.

Board Policy states:

Students are NOT ALLOWED TO CHARGE EXTRA FOOD ITEMS!

So please inform your child of this policy as cashiers will not allow charging of any items,

NO EXCEPTIONS!!

For your convenience, use MY SCHOOL BUCKS to deposit money into your child’s lunch/breakfast account and erase the agony of lost money for these items.

Even though this PROGRAM is AT NO CHARGE TO YOU in order to CONTINUE offering free meals & receive other monies for our students it is essential TO COMPLETE AND RETURN YOUR CHILD’S Household & Income Form ASAP to your child’s school.  We certainly want to continue to offer this amazing service EVERY year!
