BREAKFAST AND LUNCH ARE FREE FOR ALL STUDENTS
FOR THE ENTIRE 21/22 SCHOOL YEAR!!
*Free meals must meet federal and state reimbursable meal requirements in order to be free of charge
RSU 57 highly recommends that all households continue to submit a free and reduced application for meal price benefits. Each school district receives federal and state funding based on the percentage of students that are approved for free or reduced meal prices. Miscounting those eligible for this program could harm many educational programs we rely on to serve our students. Regardless of whether your student chooses to receive school meals or not, it is critical that we properly account for all who are eligible. Please contact the RSU 57 School Nutrition Department with any questions 207-247-3221 ext. 2257
