September 19, 2016 Subject: Food Service Communication – Second Meal Information
Dear Parents, The purpose of this communication is to clarify our meal prices and to inform parents of the opportunity for students to purchase food items or meals beyond their first meal. Current first meal prices are listed in the table below.

For the District to remain compliant with United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) nutritional guidelines, any food item purchased beyond the first meal, must be charged at full price, even if your student qualifies for free and reduced priced meals. See table below with prices for additional food options beyond the first meal.
