FOOD SERVICES

Public school districts and charter schools operating the National School Lunch Program and school breakfast program shall establish a program to offer high-quality meals at no charge. All participating school food authorities shall offer one (1) breakfast and one (1) lunch at no cost to students during each school day to any student who requests a meal without consideration of the student's eligibility for a federally funded free or reduced-price meal, with a maximum of one (1) free meal for each meal service period.

Students will also be permitted to bring their lunches from home, and may receive milk or other beverages without charge.

The Superintendent shall develop and implement procedures as necessary, which are designed to meet the necessary requirements for participation in the National School Lunch Program and for control of students using the cafeteria.
