Title
APPROVAL OF MEAL PRICES FOR 2016-2017
Description
Pursuant to the Healthy Hunger Free Kids Act and the Paid Lunch Equity provision of the act, paid meal prices must be consistent with Federal funding of Free and Reduced meals. The paid Lunch Equity language allows districts to phase in paid lunch meal price increases over a period of years to equalize lunch prices. Proposed changes for 2016-2017 are: Increase elementary paid lunch price from $2.10 to $2.25, Increase Middle School lunch prices from $2.30 to $2.50, Increase High School lunch prices for Tier 1 from $2.50 to $2.75, Tier 2 lunch price will remain at $3.00. Elementary School breakfast price will be decreased to $1.00. Adult meal prices will increase from $3.25 to $3.50.
Recommendation
That the School Board approve the proposed meal price changes as presented.
