5 reasons for completing the application

Did you know.....   With the new school year starting soon, Maries Co. R 2 School is urging families to complete the free or reduced price meals applications as part of the online registration process.

The Elementary and Middle School no longer qualify for free lunch due to the expiration of the CEP benefit that for the last five years has provided free breakfast and lunch for students in grades K-8.  The Maries Co. R2 Schools Board of Education has authorized free breakfast for all students during the 2023-2024 school year - but families who do not qualify for free or reduced price meals will be paying full price for lunch.  The 2022-2023 lunch prices are as followed;

Lunch K-12:  $2.00 

 *Reduced Lunch K-12: $0.40

Families can apply for free and reduced price meals for the 2022-23 school year during the online registration process or complete the application that was mailed to all families in July.

Completing the free and reduced lunch application helps us in many areas beyond just free and reduced lunch prices.  Just one form ensures continued funding to support all students in our district.  Help us by returning your Free and Reduced Lunch Application to your building secretary.
