2021/22 Nutrition services
The USDA is allowing schools, regardless of zip code or income eligibility, to offer all students free meals for the entire 2021-22 school year. We will not be collecting free/reduced price meal applications and all students may receive breakfast and/or lunch at no cost this school year.
A significant portion of our school funding is based on free/reduced status, so we will instead be gathering household income information. This is not being used to determine meal status but rather to determine our per student funding level. The higher our low income percentage the more opportunities we have to serve our students. This form will be included as a required form in your online portal enrollment package.

All students are eligible for free breakfast and lunch during the 2021/22 school year. There is still a charge for a milk without a meal (50 cents for students) and we will have small and large bottles of water for sale as well (50 cents small/$1 large).
Payments by check or cash can be made in the cafeteria or in the school office. Please make sure checks are made out to Nord Country School. Credit card payments may be made online via our SchoolWise parent portal. |
