Area schools have announced their participation on a program that provides free and reduced-price meals for children served in the National School Lunch Program and/or the School Breakfast Program.

Household size and income criteria are used to determine eligibility for free, reduced-price or full-priced meal benefits. Children who receive CalFresh, California Work Opportunity, Kinship Guardianship Assistance Payments, Food Distribution Program or American Indian reservation benefits are eligible for free meals regardless of household income.
