Ryal Public School free and reduced priced meals

Ryal Public School announces its policy to serve nutritious meals every school day under the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program Effective July 1, 2024 through June 30, 2025, children are eligible for free or reducedprice meals if the household income is less than or equal to the federal guidelines.

Cost per Meal: Breakfast $2.37, Lunch $4.97.

Households do not need to turn in an application when the household receives a notification letter saying that all children automatically qualify for free meals when any household member receives benefits from SNAP, TANF or FDPIR.

Children who meet the definition of foster, homeless, migrant, or runaway, and children enrolled in their school’s Head Start program are eligible for free meals. Contact school officials if any child in the household is not on the notification letter. The household must let school officials know if they do not want to receive free or reduced-price meals.

Households may turn in an application at any time during the school year. If you are not eligible now, but your household income goes down, household size goes up, or a household member starts receiving SNAP, FDPIR, or TANF, you may turn in an application at that time. Information given on the application will be used to determine eligibility and may be verified at any time during the school year by school officials. The last four digits of the Social Security number from any adult household or checking that you do not have a Social Security number is required if you include income on the application.

If you do not agree with the decision or results of verification, you may discuss it with school officials. You also have the right to a fair hearing, which may be requested by calling at 918-652-7461 This institution is an equal opportunity provider.
