Historically when the U.S. economy slows and unemployment rises, more students become eligible for free or reduced-priced meals. Parents or guardians are encouraged to apply for these benefits at the beginning of each school year, but they can do so at any time during the year. If a family experiences a decrease in income, becomes unemployed, or has an increase in family size, they are encouraged to call the school
nutrition office at 706-276-5009 for assistance with the application process.
