3 Myths about Applying for Free & Reduced Lunch — and the real facts you need to know!
❌ Myth #1: “I was approved last year.”
✔️Reality: Each year, all individuals are required to submit a new application, even if they were approved in previous years.
❌ Myth #2: “The application is too complicated.”
✔️ Reality: The application is quick, confidential, and available online. Most families complete it in under 10 minutes. Plus, schools and Food & Nutrition Services teams are available to help if you need support.
❌ Myth #3: “It doesn’t matter, I’ll just pack my child’s lunch.”
✔️ Reality: Even if your child brings lunch from home, qualifying for Free & Reduced Lunch can still help your family. Students can get a healthy breakfast or lunch at school on busy days, during testing, or when plans change.
