2024-2025 SCHOOL LUNCHES

As you may have heard, the grant that funded free school lunches for the past few years will end with the 23-24 school year. For your child to receive free school lunches for the first 30 days of the 24-25 school year, you will need to fill out a meal application now. You will need to fill it out again after July 1, 2024, to cover the rest of the new school year.

 The meal application can be found by going to WashoeSchools.net, clicking on the Meals icon and then clicking on Online Meal Application. The Meal Application Guideline page outlines the parameters to qualify for free/reduced lunches. Please allow 7 – 10 days to be notified if you qualify for free/reduced lunches.

Again, please complete the meal application at your very earliest convenience and then again after July 1st for your students to receive free school lunches all next year.

For those families that do not qualify for free/reduced lunches, paying for your child’s school lunch is easy. Please visit Washoeschools.net, click on Meals and click on Pay for Student Meals & A La Carte. This website takes debit and credit cards. You can also pay with cash or check at the school site, but not by debit/credit cards.

If you have any questions, please contact the office at 775-345-8100.
