Dear Parent/Guardian:
Byers School will provide no cost Breakfast and Lunch for all students during the 2024-25 school year.
Research shows students perform better in school when they are not hungry. By providing Breakfast and Lunch to all children at no cost, we better support their learning.
Our school meals follow the U.S. Department of Agriculture guidelines for healthy school meals. When families choose no-cost school meals, our school gets more funding and our school community can connect over mealtimes. It also saves time and money, which your family can use on what’s most important.
Although all students will receive no cost meals, it’s still important for households to provide income information when requested. Gathering this information allows Byers School District to receive state and federal funding we qualify for. These funds go directly to schools to help cover the cost of meals and support after-school activities and other nutritional programs for students. Plus, qualifying households may be eligible to receive Summer EBT benefits, receive discounted school fees, class materials, bus passes, utilities support and more.
If you have any questions about the program, please contact us at 303-822-5292 x1109
Sincerely,
Steffiney Quick
Foodservice Director
