Big News!!
Every student can receive free meals in the 2024-2025 school year.
Thanks to the Michigan School Meals Program, a state-funded program that allows all students to receive meals at no cost for the 2024 2025 school year, breakfast and lunch will be free to all students.
Although all students can receive meals at no cost, it is still very important that you fill out a free/reduced meal application: A school’s eligibility for federal Child Nutrition Programs such as the Summer Food Service Program and others is based on free and reduced-price eligibility. Students and families may qualify for other program fee reductions based on their eligibility for free or reduced-price meals. Federal and state education funding uses free and reduced-price eligibility.
Please complete the 2024-2025 online application, which is available on this website under Free and Reduced Meals Information. Paper applications will be sent out in August and available at the district office and all schools in August.
Please contact our Food Service Department at (248) 435-8500 ext. 1123 for assistance.
