If your family is new to our district or did not complete a free and reduced application for 20-21 or 21-22, we ask that you do so. Our PreK, dyslexia, ALE and tutoring programs are funded in part based on our free and reduced counts. Because every student eats free this year, applications are down and we currently stand to lose about $40,000 of this vital funding. Click this link to complete our EZMeal App online!
