Free & Reduced Price Meals

*** Print A Free/Reduced Price Meal Application (PDF) ***

The National School Lunch Program:

The Colchester School District wants to encourages all families to complete an application for Free and Reduced Price school meals. This allows us to provide meal benefits to as many families as possible.

Often families are not aware that they many qualify for Free or Reduced Price meals. If your household's income falls within the income guidelines, your family may be eligible. Families receiving Reach Up or 3SquaresVT and most foster children are eligible for free meals regardless of income.

3SquaresVT (Vermont's Food Stamp Program):

Did you know that more Vermonters are now eligible for food stamp assistance? Effective January 2009, income limits have increased and savings no longer count against you. If you receive the VT Earned Income Tax Credit, Reach Up or SSI, you are financially eligible for 3Squares VT.

If you qualify for 3SquaresVT, your children are eligible for free meals at school.
