Woodward-Granger Families,
The USDA has issued Nationwide waivers for all Iowa districts to extend the Summer Food Service Program (SFSP). This funding provides the opportunity for FREE breakfast and lunch to ALL enrolled WG students through the end of the school year, or until available funding runs out.
What does this mean for families?
Starting Wednesday, September 23rd, all enrolled WG students will have the opportunity to receive free school meals (breakfast and lunch) through the end of the school year, or until funds run out, whichever comes first. At that point, the student’s account will return to their original lunch status and be charged accordingly. All money placed in the meal account will carry over until regular meal prices resume. We will do our best to communicate in a timely manner any changes to this program. Ala Carte items, second meals, and extra servings still need to be purchased by your student(s) at the normal purchase price. Meals will be the same for all children regardless of race, color, national origin, sex or disablitiy and there will be no discrimination during meal service. There will be additional information sent for remote and quarantined learners.
How does this affect applying for free and reduced lunches?
We highly encourage Parent/Guardians to please fill out the Iowa Eligibility Meal Application to apply for free and reduced status. When we return to charging you will still receive the appropriate meal benefits. If you have any questions please feel free to contact Valerie Finestead (valfinestead@wghawks.school) or Taylor Halligan (taylorhalligan@wghawks.school).
Thank you,
Woodward-Granger Community School District
