• 2021-22 Free and Reduced Price Meals Program

    Lake Stevens School District participates in the National School Lunch and Breakfast Program sponsored by the USDA. All families who meet federal income eligibility guidelines may apply for meals at a reduced rate or at no cost.  The 2021-22 school year is unique. There is USDA funding to cover the cost of school meals. Students will be able to access a breakfast and lunch at no charge all school year. We encourage all families to still apply for Free or Reduced Price meals to access additionally district and community benefits. 

    Applications available at each school all year long and may be completed and returned to the school or delivered to the district office. All information provided is kept confidential. Information on this program is available in the school office or you can call the Nutrition Office at 425-335-1561 for more information.

    Student School and Community Financial Benefits
    A student's school meal free or reduced-price eligibility is commonly tied to financial benefits with various programs in our district or throughout the community. To qualify for these benefits, parents must provide proof of eligibility or give signed consent for these programs to access this information that verifies student(s) eligibility status with food services for the current school year.
     
    How can food services help parents/guardians looking to obtain proof that their student meets the federal guidelines for Free or Reduced-Price Meals?
    Food Services can provide proof of your student free or reduced eligibility and provide a copy of the eligibility approval letter to the parent/guardian to aid in this process.  We can provide this letter via email, mailed to the household, or picked up at the district office.  Then the approval letter can be shared by the parent/guardian with the group/organization you are seeking benefits with.
