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.

🎶 Yulee High School students in the Marching Sound of One put in over 85 hours of work during band camp to prepare for their upcoming season. Many students are sporting new instruments that were purchased thanks to the One Mill.
After camp, the YHS gym was packed with band families as students proudly showed off what they had learned after hours of hard work. While they’re learning a lot about music, they’re also building important life skills like time management, personal responsibility, work ethic, and resiliency.
Yulee High is proud to showcase this season as a state-finalist band program.
Today in Ms. Spiezio’s Anatomy and Physiology Honors class at Yulee High School, students turned into forensic investigators to solve the mysterious Death of Pickles! 🥒💀 They performed a full autopsy, examined the evidence, and worked together to uncover the cause of death.
Science has never been this thrilling! 🕵️♀️🧠
Way to go, future medical examiners! 🩺✨
