Newell School waivers and an application have been accepted for a USDA program that will allow enrolled K-12 students to receive one free breakfast AND one free lunch per day until this funding runs out. The hope is that the federal funding will be available until December 31, 2020. Newell School will still have to charge for the following: second/snack milks; second meals; pre-school students and Adult meals. There is no need for income guidelines to qualify. There will be a crediting of breakfast and lunch meals that were charged October 1, 2, 5 and 6 – only October meals are refundable.
