MEALS AT NO COST IS EXTENDED FOR THE 2023-2024 SCHOOL YEAR

The Mineral Springs School District is pleased to announce that breakfasts and lunches will be served to all students at NO CHARGE during the 2023 - 2024 school year.  

It is not necessary to complete a meal application for free or reduced priced meals as The United States Department of Agriculture has extended meal benefits to all students at this time.   

For households who wish to complete a meal application, they are available at the cafeteria office. We are  a CEP school.

These meal benefits do not include a la carte items sold in the cafeteria.  If students wish to purchase items a la carte, they will need to have money for those purchases.

All adults, e.g., visitors, teachers, support staff members, and administrators of the district must assume the full cost of the meal which is $1.75 for Breakfast and $3.50 for Lunch.
