Meals are available on advanced purchase or a pay-as-you-go basis. Applications for free and reduced-priced meals based on financial need are available in the grade school office. Students who receive free or reduced meals are entitled to one milk with each meal. Milk is only available at the regular rate. Meal money is collected at the office and can be paid in advance. All student accounts will be balance in May. Overpayment balances will be credited to the following year except for graduating or non-returning students who will be issued a refund by the District Office. Accommodating Children with Special Dietary Needs in the School Nutrition Programs: USDA regulations 7 CFR Part 15b require substitutions or modifications in school meals for children whose disabilities restrict their diets. A child with a disability must be provided substitutions in food when that need is supported by a statement signed by a licensed physician. The physician's statement must identify: • The child's disability; • An explanation of why the disability restricts the child's diet; • The major life activity affected by the disability; • The food(s) to be omitted from the child's diet, and the food or choice of foods that must be substituted. Children without disabilities, but with special dietary needs requiring food substitutions or modifications, must also submit documentation by a recognized medical authority. The physician's statement must be submitted to the school office and will be kept with the child's records. A listing of those children with special dietary needs will be posted in the school kitchen, accessible to staff only. School kitchens are not able to make modifications to meals based on food choices of a family or a child without a physician's statement. 5 5 Monroe Grade School Meal Price List Grades K-2 Regular Pay Reduced Pay Breakfast $2.00 Breakfast $ .30 Lunch $2.75 Lunch $ .40 Milk Only $ .30 Milk Only $ .30 Extra Milk $ .30 Extra Milk $ .30 Grades 3-8 Regular Pa~ Reduced Pav Breakfast $2.25 Breakfast $ .30 Lunch $3.00 Lunch $ .40 Milk Only $ .30 Milk Only $ .30 Extra Milk $ .30 Extra Milk $ .30 Visitor and Adult Breakfast $2.50 Lunch $3.75 Extra Milk $ .30 6 Discrimination Clause Monroe School District #1J does not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, disability, marital or parental status, sex, or age and provides equal access to the Scouts BSA and other designated youth groups in providing education or access to benefits of education services, activities and programs in accordance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 as amended; Title IX of the Educational Amendments of 1972, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended; and Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act.
