Imagine-Chancellor Families,
For the past two years, Imagine-Chancellor has been able to participate in a state-funded program that afforded all of our students’ free breakfast and free lunch. While this was wonderful for our families during this time, unfortunately, the program expired as of June 30th, 2022. We are currently awaiting approval from the state to be eligible for this once again.
I know that the grant was a great financial help to our families over the past two years. We were even able to feed members of the community who were not Imagine-Chancellor families through this grant. This was a great privilege for our school.
The updated Free and Reduced Lunch Program application is attached for all families. We strongly encourage all families needing food assistance to apply for the free and reduced lunch program. Please complete the attached paper application and return to the school as soon as possible. The threshold for qualification changes from time to time and even if you have been denied in the past, you may qualify now.
For the 2022-2023 school year, regular breakfast prices will be $2.00 and lunch will be $3.00. We wanted to get this information to you now for planning purposes, in the event we do not qualify for the grant that supports free meals for the entire school.
Keep in mind, that you can load money into your child’s lunch account at https://www.slalunch.com. We do ask that all parents create accounts to be able to access their students’ transaction histories and add funds.
Daily menu options are featured on our website via the Parent Information Hub.
Again, we know and empathize that the end of this grant may be a hardship for some families. Please apply for the free and reduced lunch program. Depending on the number of people on our campus who qualify for free and reduced lunch this helps makes us eligible for additional grants.
