Your family may qualify for free or reduced price meals.
As a part of the National School Lunch Program, some students may be eligible for a free or reduced price lunch. All families wishing to receive free or reduced meals must complete a new application each school year. If the family received assistance in the previous year, it may continue briefly into the new year, but without a new application the benefits could stop. It can take up to 10 to 15 days to process a paper application and 24 to 48 hours for an online application. After the application has been processed, the family will receive a letter stating those benefits for which the family is eligible. Applications are always available in the school office, Child Nutrition Department office, or online.

Letter to Families
During the last school year, children and families benefited from no-cost school meals for all students, made possible by special permission from the United States Department of Agriculture. Unfortunately, these permissions have expired. Winton Woods City Schools and the Ohio Department of Education cannot extend the permissions for no-cost meals for all students.
School meals will still be available to all students; however, they will not be free to all students. Households may apply for free or reduced-price meal benefits by August 22, 2022. Applications are available at https://www.payschoolscentral.com/ to login or register as was done before the pandemic. Eligibility for free and reduced-price lunch is based on federal income guidelines or participation in other programs such as Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program and Ohio Works First. For additional information concerning the National School Lunch Program, please see the U.S. Department of Agriculture school lunch question and answer webpage.
