Free & Reduced Price Meals Program
Familes may apply for free or reduced price meals at any time during the school year. Every year one new family application must be completed. Applications are approved based on Federal standards for family size and family income. If you need an application, they are available in each school office and in the Child Nutrition Office.
Select one of the following two methods to apply:
- Online Application: COMPASS is a system used by DPW that allows citizens of Pennsylvania to apply for programs, such as Free & Reduced Price School Meals, Food Stamps, Energy Assistance, Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP), etc., online at http://www.compass.state.pa.us/
- Paper Application: Please fill out one Family Application per household listing everyone residing in your household and return it to school with your child. The qualifying status for each child is safeguarded in our Point of Sale System. All information is kept confidential; your child will not be identified in any way. If you need help in completing your application, please contact the Child Nutrition office at 717-898-5566 between 7:30 a.m. - 4:00 p.m., Monday - Friday.
Please review the application and be sure to complete the appropriate sections as indicated in the chart below. If you need an application, you can download one from this link.
