Free and Reduced Application
Nutrition Services is excited to share that we have contracted with a new software company to manage our meal and application program. LINQ Connect is where you'll find our 2024 - 2025 Free and Reduced Meal Application as well as create an account to access your student's meal funds and account. As a reminder, school meals are free for students this 2024/25 school year! We encourage everyone to complete a Free & Reduced application as it provides benefits to you and the district such as grants, program funding and fee waivers. If you don't want to create a LINQ Connect account and only want to complete a free & reduced meal application, please click this link: Online Meal Applications.
If meals are free for all students, why should I fill out a meal benefits form?
The HSMA program is funded in partnership with federal nutrition programs that rely on that income information to support meals for ALL students. Other state and federal grants for school are awarded based on free and reduced meal eligibility rates - this could mean more money for your school!
PLUS, families who qualify may receive discounted or waived school fees, sports fees, utilities support and more.

Can my student still bring lunch from home?
YES! Students are welcome to bring home lunch. Additionally, a la carte items including milk and snacks (varies by site) will be available for purchase with available funds.
