A change by the federal government may impact your family during the ’22-’23 school year.

For the past two years, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) offered waivers to Child Nutrition (CN) Programs across the United States that provided all students breakfast and lunch at no charge.

Those waivers expired on June 30th, 2022.

Starting this school year, the CN programs across the nation will return to normal, pre-pandemic operations.

Families will need to complete a Free/Reduced Meal Application to qualify for the program.

Meal applications are available on the BCS website in Final Forms or you can print one off the BCS website or pick up an application at a school in August.
