National School Lunch Program
The Hartland-Lakeside School District serves meals every school day. Children may buy lunch for $2.25 grades K-5 and $2.35 grades 6-8. Meals are also available free or at a reduced price. All meals served must meet standards established by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. However, if a child has been determined by a doctor to have a disability and the disability would prevent the child from eating the regular school meal, this school will make any substitutions prescribed by the doctor. If a substitution is needed, there will be no extra charge for the meal. If you believe your child needs substitutions because of a disability, please get in touch with us for further information.
If you now get food stamps or Wisconsin Works (W-2) benefits, your child can get free meals. If your total household income is at or below the amounts on the income chart, your child can get free meals or reduced price meals for 40 cents for lunch. If you have a foster child, that child may be eligible for benefits regardless of your income.
TO GET FREE OR REDUCED PRICE MEALS FOR YOUR CHILD, YOU MUST COMPLETE AN APPLICATION AND RETURN IT TO THE SCHOOL. WE CANNOT APPROVE AN APPLICATION THAT IS NOT COMPLETE.
