Eufaula school announces free food program for students

Due to regulations, all school food authorities (SFAs) or institutions must submit annually a public release to the informational media, local unemployment offices, any companies contemplating layoffs in that district’s area, grassroots organizations, and interested individuals upon request.

Eufaula announced last week it is participating in a free breakfast and/or lunch program for the school year 2025.

All students enrolled in the district or the listed sites may participate in the breakfast and/ or lunch program at no charge. Provision 2 and 3 schools and CEP schools will not collect household applications for free and reduced meals.

By providing breakfast and/or lunch to all children at no charge, we can create a better learning environment for our students. The school breakfast and lunch we serve follows U.S. Department of Agriculture guidelines for healthy school meals. The program cannot succeed without your support. Please encourage your children to participate in the school meal programs.

All meals are served to all students at no charge.

In accordance with federal civil rights law and U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) civil rights regulations and policies, this institution is prohibited from discriminating on the basis of race, color, national origin, sex (including gender identity and sexual orientation), disability, age, or reprisal or retaliation for prior civil rights activity.

The letter must contain the complainant’s name, address, telephone number, and a written description of the alleged discriminatory action in sufficient detail to inform the Assistant Secretary for Civil Rights (ASCR) about the nature and date of an alleged civil rights violation. The completed AD3027 form or letter must be submitted to USDA by: (1)Mail: U.S. Department of Agriculture Office of the Assistant Secretary for Civil Rights 1400 Independence Avenue, SW, Washington, D.C. 20250-9410; or (2) Fax (833) 256-1665 or (202) 690-7442; or (3) Email: program. intake@usda.gov.
