Dear Parent/Guardian:
Minatare Public Schools will be participating in a provisional meal program from USDA for the current school year 2026-2027. By participating in this special program Minatare Public Schools will be able to serve breakfast and lunch meals to all enrolled students at no charge to them.
Studies have shown that children who are not hungry do better in school. By providing breakfast and lunch to all children at no charge, we are hoping to create a better learning environment for our students. The School Meals that we serve follow U.S. Department of Agriculture guidelines for healthy school meals. This Community Eligibility meal program cannot succeed without your support and assistance.
Free and Reduced Price Income Eligibility Applications will not be distributed this year.
Sincerely,
Diana Closson
Administrative Assistant/Food Service Coordinator
