Free and Reduced Lunch

Under the National School Lunch program, District 158 provides nutritionally balanced, low-cost or free lunches to children each school day.

Free Lunch

All children in households receiving benefits from Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) and/or are foster children that are under the legal responsibility of a foster care agency or court are eligible for free meals regardless of your income.

Also, your children can get free meals if your household’s gross income is within the free limits on the Federal Income Eligibility Guidelines. Children who meet the definition of homeless, runaway, or migrant also qualify for free meals. If you haven’t been told your children will get free meals, please contact your school to see if your child(ren) qualifies.

Reduced-Price Lunch

Your children can get low cost meals if your household income is within the reduced price limits on the federal eligibility income chart.
