Families must fill out free and reduced meal price applications for the 2022-2023 school year and meet income qualifications in order to receive free meals. The application can be found on the Titan portal link on the district’s website homepage or at this link https://family.titank12.com/

Federal Mandates
Schools across the country are required to meet new federal nutritional standards that promote healthy lifestyles and address the rising rate of childhood obesity and increased health complications. The guidelines set regulations on portion size, but offer a wide variety of milk, fruits, vegetables, proteins and grains.
- Only fat free or low fat milk will be offered (flavored will be available)
- Larger servings of fruits and vegetables and more variety
- Whole grains products must be served
- Specific portion sizes for grades K-5, 6-8 and 9-12
- Students MUST select a minimum of 1/2 cup of fruit or vegetable
The food service staff works hard to maintain these guidelines, but still wants to provide a healthy and tasty meal to students.
