USDA has translated the Household Application Packet for Free and Reduced-Price School Meals into a total of 49 languages including Spanish that are available at:  http://www.fns.usda.gov/cn/translated-applications.  KSDE provides a Spanish translation on the Checklist Tab in KN-CLAIM.

Free and reduced meal applications are available confidentially for families who qualify based on income and household size.

A student qualifying for free or reduced breakfast or lunch will receive a meal that is consists of:

• one entré choice

• fruit and/or vegetable selections

• milk

Students may choose which items they would like to select or decline each day. However, if a student does not make the required selections that constitute a “student breakfast or lunch”, the total meal cost may be more than the student meal price, as each item will be charged at the a la carte prices.

** Please note that the free & reduced meal program includes one student breakfast and/or lunch only. Purchase of a second meal, extra milk, a milk to drink with a home lunch, bottled water or any a la carte items are an additional cost to you.
