Dear Parent/Guardian:

Our school provides healthy meals each day. Breakfast prices are $2.25 for Preschool, O for Kindergarten, and $2.80 for grades 1-12; lunch prices are $2.80 for Preschool, $3.10 for grades K-5, and $3.50 for grades 6-12.

Your children may qualify for free or reduced-price school meals. To apply, complete the enclosed Application for Educational Benefits following the instructions. A new application must be submitted each year. At public schools, your application also helps the school qualify for education funds and discounts.

State funds help to pay for reduced-price school meals, so all students who are approved for either free or reduced-price school meals will receive school meals at no charge. State funds also help to pay for breakfasts for kindergarten students, so all participating kindergarten students receive breakfasts at no charge.

Return your completed Application for Educational Benefits to:
Cleveland Public School, Attn: Lori Buss, P.O. Box 310, Cleveland, MN 56017 

Each completed and approved Free and Reduced Lunch Form brings an average of $1,400 for academic supports, interventions and technology funding to our school! When you complete the Free and Reduced Lunch Form, you increase school funding, increase technology access, and receive discounts on activities, athletics, college applications, and academic test fees. By applying and qualifying for benefits, even if you don’t use the benefits, each qualifying application generates funds that will support our students. Please consider filling out the application above.
